Anchored in Hooks Bay.

At Kawau for the annual CYCC Fred Lidgard race. Due to the weather it as been postponed until Monday. Took the opportunity to visit South Cove for tha first time.

Back on the marina after a great (and hot) classic yacht Anniversary Weekend at Mahurangi.

Flags flying ready for the Classic Yacht Festival tomorrow. Should be a great day.

Back on the marina

First weekend expedition from Gulf Harbour. Much more convenient than Herald Island! Seems like everyone else from the marina is out here. Water warm for swimming.

In a borrowed berth at Gulf Harbour for the rest of the summer.

Back from the Barrier as storm coming. Tucked at the end of Bon Accord harbour.

Anchored in Smokehouse Bay after trip across from Mansion House.

Passing little barrier

Back on the mooring. Perfectly flat calm. A lovely winters evening (except for the jet skiers!)

Celebrating Queens Birthday by a trip out to Islington Bay. Weather not so great yesterday but today has been fine and clear.

Back on the mooring after a great few days away

Moved to Rocky Bay for the Jazz festival. Friends on 'Audrey' have also shown up.

Moved around the corner and parked up next to a couple of superyachts. Their owners are probably up the hill at Mudbrick!

Late start after waiting for ex-tropical cyclone Cook to pass by. Now beautiful blue skies in Auckland while the rest of NZ gets hammered. Anchored in Te Wharau Bay sheltered out of the wind.

Back on the mooring after a very wet trip back - although the wind was blowing from the right direction!

Back at the mooring after a motor back from Kawau as no wind

Moved around to Bon Accord Harbour to join up with other members of Clearwater Cove YC. This weekend is a series of races in honour of the Lidgard family who have strong ties to this bay and our club.
