Bimini Babe 0 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 I've had a couple of half-decent reviews, so I thought I'd open it up to the wider population of Crew-ites. I will warn you though, it's rather long... but at least I waited until Friday, when nobody does any work anyway. So, if you're into boring, self-obsessed sailing blogs, be my guest...... http://saladayssailblog.wordpress.com/ Link to post Share on other sites
banaari 27 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Thank you thank you thank you!!! ( Just what the doctor ordered for a Friday which was otherwise hurtling fast down the gurgler. ) Link to post Share on other sites
Chewing Gum 17 Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Enjoyed reading that thanks. That young lady writes really well and she has guts ! Reminds me of when I did that trip quite a while ago. My thoughts about Tonga were similar. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Hey sounds great Biminibabe. I enjoyed a read but have not read it all so will at my leisure. You must be feeling a lot more sure of your abilities and the yachts, congratulations. Want to have a race to the Chathams this summer . Link to post Share on other sites

Bimini Babe 0 Posted November 16, 2012 Author Share Posted November 16, 2012 My pleasure - I know how y'all like a good yarn... Yeah Minerva Reef was high on my list, but not being able to get weather reliably while en-route was a major problem, and I didn't want to push our luck for the sake of a few crayfish and a bit of sightseeing... Next time though, definitely. PS. Race to the Chathams sounds awesome! And perhaps a fishing/diving contest when we get there? Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Pope 243 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Hm, Chathams, I could be a starter for that! Link to post Share on other sites
Island Time 1,214 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Hi Bimini, well done, good writing...better than ours! Same as you, We did the pacific 6 months in 2003, and now have just returned to NZ 3 days ago after a 3 year voyage. It was to be a circumnavigation, but that turned out not to be. I'm considering doing a 500 ton masters licence now - have to look into exactly what is currenlty required.... We are now at Gulf Harbour, C Pier. If you are around, and would like to talk about the current offshore crusing situation, drop by.. Matt, SV Island Time Link to post Share on other sites
