We're anchored off a tiny but beautiful white sand beach in about 4 meters of clear water. So far, of the five nights we've been here, all but one time we've had to stern-tie to a buoy, line or tree

We're still way down in Port Pegasus, about thirty miles south of Oban. We saw one yacht leaving the area as we entered the other day. They'd been here for five weeks (Night Music). There are a

Wow. I'm tempted to leave it at that, but... We're anchored/stern tied in Disappointment Cove and it's not at all. It's beautiful. We took an arduous hike over the hill to the furthest south white

We made it: Port Pegasus on Stewart Island!!! We had a really nice downwind passage (if you don't count the brutal beat to get out of Otago Harbour and the two hours we spent beating the final 5

After 28 days in Dunedin, we are finally on the move again. We left the marina on high tide and motored a little over half way out the 12 mile channel where we'll anchor for the night. Tomorrow

We're all tied up at the Otago Yacht Club and have had our first excursion into Dunedin. It looks like we'll be very comfortable here for the next week or two - until we get a weather window to sail

What a welcome we received on our entry into Dunedin Harbor (Otago Harbor). The crew of a dredge all gave us a great big wave while they honked their horn, albatross circled and seals swam by. The 12

After a really nice stay at the beautiful new marina in Lytelton, we're off, bound for Dunedin.

After 300 miles and change and two days and change, we're in Lyttelton, near Christchurch, way down here in the roaring forties! It's a brand new marina that doesn't even show up on Google Maps yet

We made it to Napier and had a wonderful greeting at the Napier Sailing Club. It made up for the last 6 miles, beating into 27 to 30 knots. It's so nice to be in. We'll stay here for a week or so

We made it to Gisborne on our half-hearted quest to circumnavigate the South Island. We might leave as early as tomorrow, bound for Napier.

We're in and tied up but I have to say, we're not happy to be back in New Zealand! We had the worst customs experience ever. This lady just seemed to have it in for us. New Zealand, what's up

Sailing Sucks!!! I hate boats!!!

It wasn?t my best Christmas ever. Maybe worse than the time I got a turtle-keck sweater from my parents instead of the erector set I wanted! It seems to be getting better now with the wind dropping

Merry Christmas Everyone!!! Well, our days of pleasant motor sailing are over. We had about eight ours of pleasant sailing yesterday, then the front crossed us. Wind went form 20 knots from the north

Still motor sailing even though the wind is up a bit, but it?s right behind us. It?s clouded up and been raining quite a bit the last few hours. It?s a little rolly with the still small swell right

Another nice passage day motor sailing in light wind and calm seas. It?s getting a little rougher now as the north swell has built a bit. We?d probably be sailing if it wasn?t for the rolling around

Still motor sailing in very nice conditions. Passed the Tropic of Capricorn so maybe it?ll be little cooler today (it was hot yesterday). We?re making very good time with almost a six knot average

Posted: Fri, 21 Dec 2018 - 08:06

Still motor sailing in really pleasant conditions. The sky has cleared quite a bit, the sun is warm but not too hot (yet) and the seas pretty flat. Request: Lets just leave the conditions like this

This was a really nice start to the passage. Last night we motor sailed in light winds and we?re still at it this morning. So far, we managed to miss the SPCZ that was descending down on Fiji, with
