Put it this way, you can see the lights of downtown Apia!
Nobody has ever come up with a great idea after a second bottle of water.

I remember "that" spot very well indeed....busted my marlin, spearfish and mahimahi cherry right up in there.....great days.....I am sure re Plonker will chime in here with a comment about "crispy potatoes".

Thanks for that Adam....legend!

Pig...it is about 60miles to the first hill then 90 to the next...the King Bank would be closer to Houhora I suspect!!

for reference 32.8nm to the 505...
