NZ to islands - who has got away?

Just curious, given the dreadful weather over the last weeks, as to how many have got away from NZ to the islands.

I see on the yit site a fair few who must have left NZ up to 10 days ago at or close to their destinations but no one else on their way.

I also heard (unconfirmed) that the big yellow cat El Citron has lost her mast - again. very sad for them

A power boat went to Fiji last week for Theropy

Sad news about El Citron, I was on board last sept in Fiji, where did it happen ?

I don't think Cel Citron was dis-masted?  The rig is out though, for service work. I've just sold them a new Tri-Color/Anchor combo light. I'll ask...

Yep, boats are still going up (and back), I know of two in the last 2 weeks. One to Tonga, reporting a pretty boisterous trip, the other returning from New Cal, reporting pretty light winds for most of it....

From the owner;

Cel Citron was dis-masted a few years ago (2013), and had a new rig made here in Auckland. The mast base design was altered, and this time the rig is out because the altered design has put too much load on the cabin top, and it was beginning to delaminate.

That's not so bad then

I was n board with the rig builder and it would be not nice if they lost the NZ rig
