We did this trip last year in nice conditions and it was a 6 day trip, the models were showing 9-10 days for the Thursday or Friday departures. Leave Thursday so there is a buffer on the Friday deadline. Then Lola started to swirl around and make noise about coming to Fiji.Ĭue “The Clash”, “Should I stay or should I go”. hmm maybe some on the nose, similar to the Tuesday that we passed on.

Then a Friday looked good, but had a constrained finish, had to arrive before the following Friday. In Fiji, we were waiting and watching, a Tuesday looked good – but further looking had winds on the nose. Ugh,Īnyway, waiting for weather is an extreme exercise in patience, boredom, itchy feet, mental stability all play a role, which might explain things. We will probably be dealing with typhoons next as we go further west.

The systems will just be called by different names to lure you in. Well I guess there is no really cyclone/hurricane safe place. So we were looking, as many other boats for nice weather windows to leave the ‘cyclone area’ for season and go somewhere “safe”. The weather in these parts can be quite the mess.
