I love this photo of Patti at the helm as we sailed away from Ua Pou to return to Nuku Hiva - and hopefully get our autopilot part.  It was waiting for us, so we replaced the part and finished up the other odd jobs that had to be done and took off for Hiva Oa, about a day-and-a-half away.  At last, the autopilot was working - for about 30 minutes.  What a disappointment!  We stopped at Ua Pou for the night and worked on it and got it so it would work for a few hours at a time - good enough to get us to Hiva Oa.
