The exodus to the islands is beginning. Helen and Steve on Dignity threw a farewell Whangarei party this evening. A catamaran has more space than a monohull – there must have been 40 people on board, enough to make the lower step sink under 3” of water. As one would expect there was a lot of discussion about where to go in Fiji, when to go and what work still needs to be done before one can go. The weather topic will continue to dominate for the next 3 weeks.
We also said goodbye to Dirk and Anne of Sail Away whom we met in the Pacific. They're retiring from cruising after 20 years out. Dirk is sailing back to Canada and Anne is flying.
