Adam and Luke complete a 1,200-mile passage from Minerva Reef to Suva, Fiji, aboard their sailboat. During the final 24-hour stretch, the crew maintains an average speed of 4.9 knots while navigating beam reaches and squalls generated by a low-pressure system near New Zealand. The boat experiences significant rolling in 3.2-meter swells, causing the crew to reef the genoa to manage boat speed and stability.4:50 They successfully catch a one-meter mahi-mahi using a Shimano 30A TLD two-speed reel and a wire leader, providing necessary food for the final leg. Upon arrival in Suva, the crew anchors outside the harbor as instructed by local marina staff, noting that strict customs regulations prohibit leaving the vessel before formal check-in to avoid a $1,000 Fiji dollar fine. The passage concludes with the boat safely anchored before dark, transitioning from the cold climate of New Zealand back into tropical conditions.
