Getting Ready to Go – by Hugh

Hi folks. Wow, long time, no blog. Well, that’s all about to change. Next week the crew will be converging on Opua to commence Operation “Passage to Fiji” and the start of the second leg of our fantastic voyage. We’re stoked!

In the mean time Ryan and Thea are camped out in the “Bongo” van enjoying a few quiet days on a beach before being joined by the rest of the New Zealand ex-pat crew to celebrate Thea’s birthday, Bryson is sailing Khulula back up to the Bay of Islands after living on her in Auckland this past month, and I’m finishing off a few new stainless steel bits for the boat in at Axis Industrial in Auckland before heading back up north for the weekend.
