I went for a surf at Orewa, the place was rammed with surfers. Very good swell, wind dropped off, waves stood up and one of those amazing sunsets where the sky goes a bit pink and the water a bit purple and all is good with the world. Easy way to get some water time. I'm pleased to know the numbers were good. I was mildly concerned about giving navigation advice over the internet and someone having a big snaffu, so good to know the numbers are repeatable for other boats.

Terry B 73 Posted May 20, 2020 Author Share Posted May 20, 2020 A slight change of topic 😜 What system do you use to heat the inside of your ketch BP? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Black Panther 1,775 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Schooner, unless i am in reverse. I was planning to sail to Fiji every winter. Instead i have just ordered and received a diesel heater from a crowd in Chch. Let you know in a week or so how it works. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Terry B 73 Posted May 20, 2020 Author Share Posted May 20, 2020 Ooops, slip of the brain there BP! 😵 I've had the privilege of being on your SCHOONER so I knew that. Look forward to hearing how the heater goes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Black Panther 1,775 Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Winter cruising: Bread is rising. Just had a hot shower. By the time we watch a movie the bread will be ready for 2nd kneading. Must get on to installing that cabin heater next week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
