Papeete, Taina Marina, 16/04/2018.

Still here with Meg arriving in Papeete tonight, and on the boat tomorrow. Dawn and Garry on Wednesday.
The forward navigation lights are not working, all the wiring in the sail locker has corroded away! An electrician was due to come this afternoon, but has postponed till the morning. I will have as much of the wiring replaced as is possible, the wire will be rotten inside the insulation.
The radar is hopefully going to be looked at by the skipper of one of the WARC boats tomorrow. Failing that, an electronics technician will look at it on Wednesday. Hopefully the problem can be sorted out between them. Radar is not vital but is of comfort approaching land or a storm front.
Anyway no great problems here.
