COMMENT: Beach House – ANCHORED – Fatu Hiva – Marquesas Islands – 18.25 days

Just a quick update to let everyone know we\’re safely anchored in Hanavave Bay (The Bay of Virgins) at Fatu Hiva Island, Marquesas Islands….
We\’ll do a big blog soon. Friends on \”Blowin\’ Bubbles\” helped us get anchored in this windy and very tight anchorage. A very big help, thank you \”Bubbles\”!

Last update on \”stuff happens\”. Our port engine has overheated about 6 hours from being anchored and a big coolant leak has been detected. We\’ll investigate tomorrow in the light of day. Everything on these engines is new. So much for being pro-active….:-)

KIT,
Scott and Nikki
