nagy592 21 Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 We just done our firs night on Topaz. Wasn't a pleasent night in Pigeon Bay on Saturday with the 30-35 knts N-NW wind after midnight, but I finally I tested the new anchor, the re-positioned anchor winch, the newly added remote for it in the real world. Everything passed (including myself). Nice sailing back to Lyttelton on Sunday (as nice the NW could be to sail up on the coast). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Island Time 786 Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 Went outside everything. White water every where. I wasnt going through any skinny gaps.Got to watch Walker rock, OUTSIDE THE LIGHT! Sometimes hard to spot.The gap inside is fine for a cruising yacht paying attention, just not for a ship! Fair call to go outside though. Tide rip can be a bit nasty if wind against tide, and patently unsafe in an open boat. Pleased to hear your having a great time!

Black Panther 699 Posted January 8, 2019 Report Share Posted January 8, 2019 Will sit in Wellington till the weather looks good to head for tauranga. Currently single handed for that leg as crew decided he'd rather paint his roof. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
