Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails.

Most prep completed - asked for Customs Clearance for Saturday morning. The Christchurch crew arrive on board tomorrow evening - looking forward to having them. The Sandy Bay team join us on Saturday morning bright and cheerful :)[END]
Just joined this Yacht in Transit site, a great service. We will endeavor to add blogs when in port and with internet. Otherwise we will contact the crew that run this website by HF Radio and they will update our position on a map so you can see where we are. Currently at the Bay of Islands NZ, plan on spending a couple of weeks here and a little North and then leave for Tonga. The Rainbow Warrior scuttled by the French is sitting in about 20m of water a few hours North so will go for a dive on that. More soon once we get organized with this blogging business. Cheerio Braye
