    Awatere

    Aratere That is a photoshop pic - The newspaper article at the time said it was an artist impression of the actual 50 deg. roll. The Aratere had to stear an unfavorable angle in the heavy southerly, to clear Cape Terawhiti on a course to the northern entrance to the sounds - There were no off board cameras near the roll area. With shifted cargo and still listing they had to keep heading north until almost Kapiti Island untill it was safe to turn and head back south.

  5. Out in front of the road bridge on the edge of the whitest of the white water in that shot, The finer river sediment gave the good holding. https://www.google.co.nz/maps/@-41.5693421,175.4007232,1967m/data=!3m1!1e3
  6. Ive found White Rock is a great place to be in a NW screamer, Really good holding but windy anchorage on the right hand side of the white rock. Spent a few nights there many a time after a hard NW reach down the coast. Never dragged even in 50 gusting 70 ish and 1 metre wind "Chop" coming off the beach. - Danforth 10 mtr chain and warp There was a 1 meter wind chop only cause we had to anchor a long way out so we wouldnt get dumped on the beach by the 3 mtr southerly swell that had picked up. The southerly did arrive next day which gave an nice sail to Wellington Good Fu

  8. You see Rehab. its not rocket science to do a coastal trip. You have been trying to make out you need to be super human with the ability to google search weather sites. Compulsory port calls for weather info, Laughable -
