Well this morning got off to an exciting start Ã¢ÂÂweÃ¢ÂÂ (Malcolm) caught a 180kg BLUE MARLIN!!! Sasha saw it take the lure, just a few moments after she witnessed a school

All very well on board. There is very light winds today, the ocean is so calm, with minimal swell, it is very pleasant indeed. Apart from the fact that we are motoring, when we would much rather

Our first night was plain-sailin! We had our screacher up all night, and had to pop on the engine around 1am as the wind disappeared. The overnight watch was started by Malcolm with moonlight

Great first day sailing, averaging a good 9 to 10knots with our Screacher sail. We all watched the sunset Ã¢ÂÂ no green flash alas! All well on board.

Brilliant start!!! Loving this, but still a fair way away from the real southerly swell - all very well on board, cups of tea, oranges, apples, cheddar, ginger nuts and almonds for afternoon tea.

Today IS The Day!!! We have cleared Opua customs, and are currently making final preparations to set sail for Minerva and then Pangai Tonga!! Super excited! Big thanks to FUSIO and Gulf Harbour

As you can probably tell Super Sasha is having a few issues updating an accurate GPS of Moonfish on YIT.

Still in Opua, Magic-Mike as installed a new super-duper Raymarine Autopilot, and we've completed a quick trial and new 'Auto' is working just perfect!! While Mike was 'magic' - Sasha was not so

Posted: Tue, 10 May 2016 - 16:58

We have made it to Opua, the autopilot is still playing up so Mike ordered a new one, we'll spend tomorrow waiting for it to arrive, get final provisions and then plan to head off to Tonga Saturday.

We've made it up to Mimiwhangata, pretty sloppy 10plus hour sail/motor today... With our autopilot playing up until Mike the magician fixed it! Gosh he's a clever poppet!

Woke up early in Bon Accord Harbour. We're now motoring our way up to Tutakaka - hopeful we'll get the Scretcher sail up today, it's been like a mill pond out here.
