Enjoying our 3rd week at Minerva North. Whales are comming by the boat several times a day. All is well.
Arrived at Minerva North at 9 AM this morning. There is enough room in here for a navy! All is well.
Winds picked up at 0300. Put in a second reef with the sunrise. We are moving well but the ride is a bit bumpy. All is well.
Presently on a nice beam reach. All is well
Had to motor all night. Winds shifted West at 11 AM and increased. Presently on a nice beam reach. All is well.
Just leaving the Whangarei Heads. Headed to Minerva Reefs.
We are clearing out tomorrow morning and headed for Minerva Reefs and Tonga.
We've arrived in beautiful New Zealand! The customs and biosecurity process was very straightforward. The officials were friendly and professional. All for now. Rich Michelle Andy Ants
We are on a fast jibe parallel and 50 NM off the coast. We'll turn towards Opua when we draw even. ETA about Midnight. Next report should be from the Q dock. All is well. Rich Michelle Andy Ants
Winds have dropped further so we've been motor-sailing the last 18 hours. Running the port engine makes hot showers possible. Yippee! 220 to go. All is well. Rich Michelle Andy Ants
Winds have dropped and moved to the East. Swell has reduced also - thank goodness. 350 to go. All is well. Rich Michelle Andy Ant
We are making relentless progress south and the swell is making relentless progress North. WHAM! WHAM! WHAM! I love my catamaran! All is well. Rich Michelle Andy Ants
