My French friends, Jacques and Marie and their two young children, who participated in the cricket match mentioned in Part 1, eventually left Aotearoa bound for New Caledonia where they stayed for some months before heading to Fiji. They invited me to join them to sail with them to Vanuatu, so I flew to Nadi and boarded their 40-foot yacht.
I guess sailing became part of my future genetic makeup back in 1865 when my great-great grandfather William Foote abandoned his timber milling business in Newfoundland Canada because adverse weather over several years had affected tree growth.
