Coral sea was hell. Thrown about for 3 days but arrived safely at the western end of the island group that contains Sudest. We are anchored behind a tiny island called Duchateau. It's very beautiful, deserted, and surrounded by coral reef. That was 3 days ago.

We caught Spanish mackeral today and traded them with some villagers on Motorina is for coconuts, limes and bananas. The villagers paddled out to our anchorage in dug out canoes. 

We are heading east tomorrow for Nimoa. There is a Catholic mission there which may be able to help us with our project.
