Departing Fulaga, Fiji, a cruising couple navigates a narrow, tide-dependent lagoon pass in darkness before setting a course for the island of Kadavu.1:32 The crew utilizes OpenCPN on a tablet as a secondary navigation aid while exiting the reef.0:43 During the passage, they fly a code zero and later transition to a spinnaker to maintain speed in light winds, averaging six knots in nine knots of apparent wind.14:38 The transition reveals a design flaw in the bowsprit mounting for the spinnaker lines, prompting the owner to plan a custom welded modification.17:10 To improve safety when dousing the spinnaker, the owner adds a larger sheath to the dousing line for better grip and establishes a consistent cleating routine to ensure the line is always ready for rapid deployment.25:42 After a night of light winds and intermittent motoring, the vessel arrives at Kadavu at dusk, navigating through a reef-lined cut to reach a 23-foot anchorage.30:07
