From a violent windstorm in Rangiroa that broke the bottom of our rudder to swimming with manta rays in Tikehau, sharing boat life with our daughter and grandsons, and finally limping into Raiatea with a hose clamp holding our rudder together, the past few weeks have been an unforgettable adventure. Now, as Equus sits high and dry awaiting repairs, Bora Bora is visible in the distance, reminding us exactly why we persevere and why we sail.
