Hanging in Tauranga till the weather is better to bring Dulcinea back to the sounds

Yahoo. Checked into New Cal! Not too bad of a passage bit sloppy and bumpy for the first couple days but calmed out for the last half. Made it just under 5 days so pretty pleased.

Bring on the croissants and cheese

Moved in closer to the moorings. It was quite a long dinghy ride from our last anchorage. Pretty pleased to be hiding out here with the forecast wind heading this way!

Out of Vuda Point Marina and now at Musket Cove! Yay much prettier surroundings!!

Safely tied up in Vuda Marina to reprovision food, collect so water, service engine and relax for a few days.

Arrived to a beautiful calm anchorage and managed to swim with the mantas again

Finally found a sheltered anchorage in Blue Lagoon
