Reasonable length of trip to French Polynesia

Would something like this be workable?

Day
1: Arrive PPT from AKL, continue to BOB, Bora Bora
2: Bora Bora
3: Bora Bora
4: AM pick up with boat, sail to Raitea and overnight there on the boat
5: Sail from Raitea to Tahaa, overnight there on the boat
6: Sail early back to BOB, connect to PPT and ferry to Moorea, overnight
7: Moorea
8: Return to PPT, overnight there
9: Depart

Is this a reasonable first trip to Tahiti as far as seeing a variety of islands and having enough time? More than 2-3 days of just lying on the beach in the same place with nothing to do is about all I think we'd like. Add a 3rd day in Moorea? Other islands? I think both of those sails should be under 6 hours, so should be easily doable in reasonable weather? Thanks!
