A 15-mile passage from Bora Bora to Ta'a'a in French Polynesia requires beating into 15-knot winds and a combined swell from the north and south.▶ 7:09 The crew of a cruising catamaran encounters rough, "sporty" conditions while sailing southeast, forcing a reef in the mainsail to manage gusts.▶ 5:45 Upon reaching the lee of Ta'a'a, the sea state flattens, allowing for a transition to a mooring ball near a floating restaurant.▶ 9:34 The crew subsequently anchors in a sandy patch near a reef to snorkel at the Coral Garden, where they encounter significant current.▶ 14:16 The transit concludes with a dinghy ride to a local resort for dinner during the December low season.▶ 16:01 Practical lessons include the importance of using a bridle to secure the anchor chain to the boat, rather than relying solely on the windlass clutch, and the necessity of checking Bluetooth stereo connections to avoid accidental playback of previous media.▶ 12:54
