Here’s a 20 second sample of today’s sail. Most of the time we’re motoring, or motor-sailing at best. Today we enjoyed a rare (for us) day of sailing on our way from the Kawau Island in the Hauraki Gulf to Tutukaka in Northland New Zealand.
The sea was a little lumpy with a following 1-1/2 meter swell from behind us with wind between 10 and 15 knots, also from behind. Even with the rolling, it was a really beautiful day! Cyndi said she had arranged this for my birthday. I will never again question her enormous powers. -Rich
