[status] This new location is interesting. We are anchored in 34m of water, with ripping currents on either tide of 3-4 kts. However, the location is great for several very good dives up here in this area...so we are going to make due for now. We have two guests aboard, so we are having fun playing dive coordinator as we have been focused on diving and more diving the past 5 days. There is not much more to report, other than the weather has been very good until this morning.... :)

[status] Pleasant reach in relatively calm conditions since last update - mostly 14-20 knots of wind overnight, dropping to 11k for brief periods. Expecting the winds to go light later today and we may have to do some motoring, but we'll happily make the most of the breeze as long as we have it. 236 miles to go to The Bay of Islands.

[status] Left Manly at 11 yesterday once the NE wind had come in. Had a stunning sail in 20-22 knots until about midnight when the wind died. Motored for about 5.5 hours and now the SE'ly has come in as forecast by GRIBS. Should be a nice sail now and hopefully be into Eden by about 2.
