We have dropped anchor at Manu-a this afternoon. We tried to get to the beach in the tender, but it was way too rocky and we could not even get close to the beach. I have swam out to the shore and have scouted out a channel that we will attempt tomorrow morning at high tide. Fingers crossed. The location has a 1200' almost vertical mountain-side to the S, SE and SW. Open to the NE, N and NW.

(Google maps -14.164769 -169.621227.) I hope that a skewed path opening will get me to W EU just after my SS, starting around 0530 Z. And then E EU maybe around my SR at 1630 Z.
I will post if we make is ashore in one piece and get the radio working.
You never know....

George,
