UNFINISHED BUSINESS
By 5pm the wind started to fade to less than ten knots which was perfect timing for me because there was no way Manu would have wanted to cut off the session early to give me a lift back to the beach. The ride home was equally thrilling as we flew between the waves at the Manawa reef pass, finally into the safety of the inside lagoon and just in time for me to run to our room, pack and make my transfer to the airport. Like I said at the beginning of this piece, some days in your life will stick in your memory for years to come and this was certainly one of them. The thrill of being out in those waves and watching those huge barrels charge down the reef was so awesome, while at the same time I know I probably didn’t capture the perfect moment on camera that I had hoped for. So once again I have some unfinished business in Mauritius and definitely have it in my list of locations that I’d love to have another shot at some day in the future. In the meantime, I would certainly recommend this amazing location for any level of sailor as a group or family destination. After all, there are not many spots in the world where everyone on a holiday are kept happy all in one place; even my wife loved it!
