After doing some internet jobs in the morning we decided to leave the yacht club and explore the rest of the island. We wanted to go ashore this evening to watch some of the local dance competition that was part of the festival so we wanted to anchor somewhere near to the town. We found a lovely spot next to a small island (motu) in crystal clear water.
I tried to send some SSB e mails from our navigation computer when lots of error messages appeared … the hard drive had died completely. This had started to happen in Tahiti so we had bought a spare external hard drive so that we could take the hard drive out of the one we already had and use it in the laptop. Unfortunately when Jonny tried to replace the hard drive the spare hard drive had stopped working??!! Jonny tried a couple of other options but they wouldn't work … we needed a new hard drive. We were going to go ashore in the morning and try and find a shop that sold them (although we weren't hopeful) or try and get one sent from Tahiti.
After dinner we headed ashore to watch the dancing. We met Coromandel Quest, Kathleen Love, Painted Skies, Calysta, Blaze and Equinox ashore as well. The dancing was amazing.
