I thought the first job on a Tucker boat was to install a decent stereo, fog machine and laser lights? These items are all required for a boat warming!
-
I actually wasn't think of you... but now you mention it!!! There is a certain blue boat in the river that shall we say continues to provide entertainment...and wonder about what will happen next!
-
You get your share of crazies up that river!

I have installed the same as the link above on a boat... used it during Fiordland tour last summer. Brilliant

Don't bother... go starlink

Coming from the biggest offender of the above that I know!!! "Do what I say not as I do!" springs to mind!

For a Wright 10 I would expect the trip to be 2.5-3 days non stop. Anchoring every night isn't that feasible as a lot of the trip is very exposed and places to anchor are either well off track or only suitable in limited wind/swell directions. Rounding East Cape is a serious undertaking...Ive done it at least 8 times and only had 2 calm roundings, the others were getting bashed to various degrees. From the tone of your email I would leave the boat at home and take the car as this doesn't sound like a trip for you!

Whose sails do you use? Talk to the sailmaker for a tuning guide to suit what you have.
-
Well that's cursed it now!
-
Did you need to modify the anchor locker to make it fit?
-
I think your doing well to predict a night time rounding for most boats this far out from the event!

Have a chat to Ross Littler "Zambezi"

Most years have a light race as well as a "breeze on" race... I certainly prefer breeze on...
