Cavatina 10 Posted September 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 7 hours ago, Fish said: Tracker link: https://www.waihekeworkingsail.org/mikes-journey/follow-mike/ Thanks for posting that link Fish.Now up past the Cavallis goose winged again after an issue with a jammed second reef line meant I had to drop the main and proceed under reefer genoa. Hove to in the lee of Cape Brett and sorted it this morning. Things have settled down a bit since last night and it is a much more pleasant ride. Not sure how much longer I will have reception as apart from North Cape I will be well offshore down the West Coast to Doubtful Sound. Fish 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

muzled 74 Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 Very much enjoyed reading the history of Kate and sent the link to some friends who have spent a good chunk of their lives out at the mercs. Jim is busy restoring Lisa Rose which was built by C.E.Thompson the son of Erik who built Kate. https://boatingnz.co.nz/one-last-boat-yeah-right/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
