MARQUESAS - HIVA OA
Atuona, the harbour town where we checked in is best known as the burial place of Paul Gaugin and Jaques Brel. Lying next to each other under a fragrant fragipani tree.
The locals are fanatic about their out-rigger canoe races and practiced every day ready for the weekend races. Destiny was anchored in prime place on the start/finish line
It's not all fun and games!!

Heaps of time is spent doing mundane things like engine oil changes, impeller changes and the hateful washing!


A source of plentiful on tap free water is not to be missed!!!
The bucket and plunger being a trick picked up in Africa!
