After deciding that $60 FJD was an over investment in the Royal Suva Yacht Club, despite the very friendly staff, we chose to move on from the capital city and return to Vuda Marina to effect repairs on the fridge and the generator. 
A spirited sail in Force 6 gusting 7 winds from the port quarter, we took in one reef on each of the main and the foresail. When the wind backed to directly astern, we furled the Genoa and ran with the two booms goose-winged, held by preventers in the inconsistent wind. 
An overnight passage brought us to anchor off Vuda Marina at about 04:00 but with low tide being at 08:00 when the Marina opened, we will have to remain at anchor until high water at 14:00 to make our entrance.
