Seeking Advice - American Samoa

[blacknz]

Hi can someone please tell me what would be the best time of the year to sail a yacht from New Zealand to American Samoa?

Leave NZ anytime after the Pacific cyclone season has finished ie April on...

Thanks Paul; so depart after April. What would be the latest time to leave? (ie - when does the season begin?)
