About the time in Rakahanga
Clocks in Rakahanga stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC −10 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Cook Islands.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Rakahanga day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 19:00–03:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
Rakahanga sits at latitude -10.03, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 11h 50m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
