    Oh. That's disappointing.
  2. I was thinking the same thing. Fishing charters you mean? The biggest (sail) charter operator out of opua has just shut down.
  3. Seems a strange plan. Super remote by road, no?
  4. Thanks for the map link, didn't know about that. Will be interesting to see the updated version in BoI. In general, it certainly it isn't a map of popular anchorages.
  5. Northland Regional Council (NRC) confirmed this week that caulerpa had been found at six new locations in the eastern Bay of Islands Ipipiri island group, about six kilometres from Paihia. It has been found at Urupukapuka Island’s major boating anchorages Paradise Bay and Otiao Bay (Entico Bay) and Moturua Island’s Army Bay as well at two locations around adjacent Motukiekie Island. https://www.1news.co.nz/2025/03/03/millions-thrown-at-bay-of-islands-caulerpa-control-as-pest-seaweed-spreads/ Wonder what they'll do now. The current anchoring ban makes little sense if it's widespr

  7. Looks like summer might finally be arriving, just in time for the kids to go back to school.
  8. I'm sure this has come up before, i.e. rig not covered by insurance beyond a certain age. I can't quite face searching for it right now though.
  9. For the second year running, I am certain that the weather didn't help.

    Anybody know what sort of conditions they sail in vs cancel for weather? Sunday looking a bit spicy depending on how this low tracks...

    The track of that low keeps wobbling back and forth with each update. This morning it didn't look too bad for Akl but doesn't look great at the moment. Here's hoping it drifts a bit further west again...
  13. I hear a top race-spec moth is $120k. It's a whole different thing these days.

    Which end do you imagine is going to be the "top"?
  15. Awesome! And summer proper seems to have arrived too.
