[s]In Admirals Bay, Whangaruru after a very entertaining 12 hour, 74nm sail from Great Barrier. Wind just aft of the beam and 25-28 kts at first, moving astern and moderating during the day to allow us to fly some more colourful sailcloth.
Highlight of the passage was the arrival of about 30 dolphins - a 'superpod' according to our resident marine biologist who tells us that normal pods number no more than 8 or 9, so this was a gathering of several of them - who played with us for about 30 minutes. Magical![END]
