Yes that position is correct! We did a u turn!
We were 350 miles into our route to New Zealand when we heard a severe change in weather on our approach to NZ. It would mean 6+ meter seas and 40kt winds. There is a tropical low forming and a huge front coming North. So Back to Coffs Harbor and will try again asap.. I hope I get a day to sleep and do laundry BEFORE we head back out.. errrrrr Hey thats sailing AND its a nice sunny day today so :)

There is nothing more enticing, disenchanting, and enslaving than the life at sea.
