Hey Clipper, Not holding up traffic at all. Further down the road there are signs indicating to South bound traffic to use the two right hand lanes. The driver chose to do that earlier rather than later to avoid cutting across 3 or 4 lanes. He also chose that time of day to avoid heavy traffic. Quite safety conscious I would say. . Check out the motorway on most days and you will notice all lanes including the right hand one full and moving at the same speed. Beau over and out.

my sympathy goes out to the facebook community. One tosser suggested 'speeding' yet another suggests 'holding up traffic' even though there isn't any around apart from the guy using his phone to take photos while driving. The photo below the boat photo shows several lanes with lots of cars and trucks in each lane. Should they all be in the left lane ? .

The boat is more photogenic on the port side. Cool photo. Cheers

Cant find it on Facebook. More info please

TOO LATE Sold to a Tauranga buyer. Same guy that owned one of my other boats I built called Thirsty Work. So there goes my last yacht. Going fishing.

The VAVA'U RACE web site includes the preliminary notice of race and registration of interest document. Go to the Kerikeri Cruising Club web site and click on 'Vava'u Race for more information.

Vava'u Race will be cat 1. Details on how to obtain a Cat 1 certificate on YNZ web site. The organising committee will have a dedicated page on the Kerikeri Cruising Club web site later this month. Until then,questions to Mark Beauchamp at info@kerkericruisingclub.org.nz

Mmmmmmm, Will have to get back to you on that one but I can assure you we will do our best to accommodate you for sure.

MONDO TRAVEL have come on board as a major sponsor. Part of which will be a drawn prize of a trip for two to Vava'u including air fares, accommodation and transfers, open to all entrants. Just under two years to go already so time to start thinking about your options.

Yes Bronze being cruising type boats but it will be a race for them. Have had a bit of interest about that division already. And you are correct, The local businesses and Tourism Tonga are getting behind this big time. I believe 2017 is a good call too as we are the only club to be approved by YNZ to run an offshore race that year.

Looks like the 6th of May. High tide suits that day. Bronze division start on the 4th. To be confirmed.
