Good on both of you. I’d have marina as option 1 and Opunga Cove as option 2.
-
I'd bet good money that if you have a look at shoal bay late on Monday you'll see one unwrapped.
-
Central pressure near 960 at landfall in NZ would make it one of our biggest ever, I think. Here's hoping the forecast is crap; either that it doesn't strengthen so much, or the track is wrong, or ideally both!
-
Forecast is still extremely nasty. Get tucked up somewhere safe, sooner rather than later.
-
I'm seeing big se going south. I'd go boi. You could always go the easy route and jump in the marina.
-
Now forecast below 960, more or less direct hit on the Hauraki Gulf. All I can say is I hope the forecast is wrong.
-
Good. Maybe by April summer will have turned up?
-
Ooof, she looks a biggun. Central pressure below 970?
-
Got to sort all that before you bid though.
-
Looks like you can have another go. Happens far too often with these things. https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/boats-marine/yachts/keeler/listing/3987011553

$1k/pm wouldn't be too far out of line for a 60 footer though?
-
State of the motor is what would give me pause. Does it really just need a service, or is it re-power time?
-
Bit of a head scratcher that one. Saw them on the beach securing the wreck, got the impression she'd been sucked out of the marina by the ebb (maybe just my assumption). Then heard later that she'd gone out under her own power and that very much left me wondering why you'd do that!
-
Sometimes they come right when dry. Sometimes not. Fingers crossed.
-
Eeek. Apparently the tugs probably didn't have the ability to tow her in those conditions. So damn good thing they managed to restore power...
-
Ouch. The river moorings would have been particularly "exciting". Hope the damage isn't too bad.
-
We ran home yesterday morning based on the forecast. Almost wish we hadn't, yes yesterday sucked but it seems to have blown through pretty quickly and not bad out there today.
-
Always wary of overnight at Oneroa for this reason. Even if it's not that big, can be annoying.
-
Would be nice to see it succeed. Anniversary day and coastal numbers aren't the spectacle they used to be, having at least one huge fleet a year would be great. That said I can't see requiring a PHRF cert being helpful in getting the numbers up.
-
So I know the 10 day forecast is hardly better than guesswork, but... really, another one?
-
Yuck. Just as well that we weren't planning to go out again until late Jan. Hopefully summer returns by then.
-
... why on earth do RAYC want the yard closed!? Really just so they can get some storage??
-
I'm not surprised that individual local boards would rather have a waterfront park than a hardstand in their bailiwick. But as pointed out by others above, the city needs to have the facilities somewhere, particularly if the various new biosecurity regs are to be met.
-
I heard there's a piedy that got a 100k birthday. Can't decide how I feel about that if true.
-
I imagine the issue is more disproving fake sales, rather than proving legitimate ones.
