The same day Deodar was going to bay to bay at the bottom end and visited Pacific Sunset they were also checking around these guys. So they must have had an explanation that satisfied the police enough to let them stay out whereas PS got sent home. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Black Panther 1,691 Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Stuck in the river. I got back from my trip up north on the Sunday and lockdown Tuesday so no time to plan an alternative. However it's very pleasant up our river. Another 2 weeks and we could be getting restless. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
marinheiro 359 Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 its notable the number of ships anchored off Tauranga (10) vs the 2 off Auckland. Have the shipping companies given up on Auckland, or at Tauranga in anticipation of their going L3 for a faster turnaround? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

darkside 64 Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 10 boats anchored out is a quiet day for Tauranga. 18 was a recent peak. The seiners are also working in really close at present, only a couple of miles out from our house Quote Link to post Share on other sites
