[status] All well. Thanks for your help yesterday. We've had a problem develop that will prevent us from motoring. Our propeller has failed. It is on the shaft and turning but no thrust. Will make our arrival Whangarei interesting! We did get some SE late last night, so that is good; boat speed was down to 2 knots this morning but breeze has picked up again.
