So if you arrive in the evening and dont want to navigate through Man O War for example?
You might have to justify why you would plan your trip to arrive when and where you could not safely navigate.

Thanks for the information Waikiore. I was just crew but will pass onto owner at that time who I am still in touch with.
Cheers

Thanks Zozza,

Bought back memories.

Most of the people I know who have had trailer boats for a few years have stories to tell. LOL.

Thinking of stopping off at Great Barrier Island on the way south from the Bay of Islands in a couple of weeks.
Has it recovered somewhat from the cyclone, or are we better off leaving the locals to get on with their cleanup?
Anyone with recent knowledge?
Thanks.
We spent a week around Gt Barrier after Cyclones. Only went ashore at Fitzroy wharf to store, and for diesel.
All normal there. Never saw another boat down the eastern side except two in Arid Island.
Will be back later this month.

Well that's the answer then! Redirect the Waikato pipe line to all the estuaries that have the fan worm, and that'll kill 'em off. Us dorklanders can die of thirst...or go crack open a cold amber one.

I still have an offshore set Of PVC purchased for a Noumea Race 1984 hanging in my garage. Looks OK but last time I tried it on it had shrunk too.

We sail with mixed crews always , and despite that dont climb over each other -however the point is well made I see a time very very close where we insist on only the fully vaxxed on board particularly for after race tinctures.
Until I cleaned my glasses I thought you were only allowing fully waxed on board Yikes

FWFS, all the best to Pete, Megan & family on Sula 2.
And to all the other adventurers that the call was stronger than caution in these uncertain times.
My apologies. I was refering to elevation of vessel in previous post.

I commissioned (fitted) a Raymarine element 9HV recently which dropped its position randomly but quite frequently.
We resolved by reducing the resolution of its position output. It was a setting well hidden and I am not sure if it looked at less satellites or used a less intensive algorithm but this worked and may give you a lead.
Had earlier tried to reducing the plot to 5 second separation and problem remained, after reducing resolution it now also accepts 1 second plot separation happily.
