In Port

Just a quick note to say that we arrived in Bluff, New Zealand this morning, a few hours short of six days since we left Hobart. We had some rough weather on our last day out, but otherwise had a fine crossing. More details to follow in the next day or two!

  3. Enjoyed following you on the tracker, and comparing it to the weather charts. Interested to hear feedback on the value of the weather service (I think I can guess!).

    1. funny, there's not a short answer about the weather service - some good, some bad. That said, I think we would use one in other potentially difficult passages...
