We just arrived in Napier and are tied up at a guest dock at the Napier Sailing Club. We're more than half way on our trip from Tauranga to Marlborough Sounds on New Zealand's South Island. We

Departing Tauranga for Napier. It'll be nice to have the boat moving again after almost two months in Tauranga, but we'll really miss this incredible place!

Long time - no update. Sorry. We've been in the Tauranga Bridge Marina for about five weeks now. Currently, Legacy is on the hard getting her bottom done. We hope to be in the water and heading south

On the move again, this time, heading south along the east coast of NZ, eventually towards Wellington, and then Nelson.

Arrived and in a berth in Opua after a great passage. Thanks Bob McDavitt! Thanks weather gods. Thanks Legacy. Thanks Gulf Harbor.

22 miles from the entrance to Bay of Islands!!! Nice day yesterday, though motoring the while day. The current giveth and the current taketh away. We were gifted 74 miles by the current this trip

Motor sailing with a great current behind us. It's pushed us 64 miles in the right direction so far, this passage. (Why is all the water from the South Pacific going to Antarctica? ;-) What a great

What a great passage so far! (If we forget about the bad bits at the beginning!) We're moving along nicely in light air. We should be at the Opua Q dock at 9PM or so Friday. I don't think we can

We haven't touched any of those rope/line thingys in two days. I like set-it-and-forget-it sailing!

Yesterday was one of the nicest sailing days we've ever had. Legacy just moved along effortlessly in flat seas, light winds and a strong current pushing us. It doesn't get any better. Today, a small

Finally, a nice ride. The last 36 hours were terrible. This is wonderful. The boat has a gentle movement and we are making good progress. The conditions started to get better last night about 3AM and

We're telling ourselves over and over that we do this for fun, but it's not helping. All's well, but we're not having fun! Looks like the winds we had last night (about 26 knots, starting south and

Beautiful morning. Motoring in pretty calm seas. Had a boobie passenger last night. Had a boobie mess this morning! Oh well.

On our way south. Got out of Vuda at about 10:30 AM. We are so sad to leave. See you in 8 days or so, New Zealand. (Nero is hot on our heals, just 1.9 miles behind us.)

Getting ready to head to NZ (Opua) tomorrow. We're sure going to miss Fiji! We're sure going to be glad to be back in NZ! Nice life!

We're came here from Vuda Marina (Wonderful!!!) for a few days getaway. It's nice and quiet here.

Anchored off Likuliku resort on the northwest corner of Mololo island after almost a week at the hit-and-miss Musket Cove. It was fun to get to meet the rudest woman in Fiji though! ;-)

It was hard to leave wonderful, beautiful Vuda Marina, but leave we did on an arduous ;-) 16 mile journey to Musket Cove, fighting 7 knot head winds for at least part of the way. We're on a mooring -

We are at the quarantine mooring off of Vuda Point Marina. Yay! We are alive and well... well, alive anyway! Not a bad passage compared to what it could have been, but I'm still not a happy camper

Posted: Thu, 25 Jun 2015 - 09:12

I guess we're lucky with the weather we got on this passage. The true wind, so far, has never been forward of the beam and I guess the seas could have been worse, but I'm sure glad it's almost over
