Cleared into Marsden Cove morning of Nov 21, then motored up to Whangarei into 30kt head winds, now at dock in Town Basin. Decent but bumpy passage, 8.5 days. All is well except missing radio antenna at top of mast.

Planning on clearing out of Vuda Marina this am, and heading for Marsden Cove NZ

In route to Fiji, down wind wing on wing port gybe west of rhumb line 26nm. Anticipate gybe to east in about 100 miles

At anchor Opua, preparing to depart for Fiji, initial test message
