I took Joe away for the weekend sailing. We had about 20 knots on NE and as we were reaching, we just rolled out the head sail. Later on as we rounded Rangitoto Island (a volcano which is only about 600 years old) to port, we came onto the wind and put up a full main and hummed along at about 6 knots. We spent the night on the southern side of Waiheke Island, which is in the Huraki Gulf. The bay is called Putiki Bay.
The sailed distance was about 28 miles, however as the crow flies, this is not far from Auckland.
On the way back home we had 15 knots of NE. We sailed via another route which was quicker and over the area where the 2000 and 2003 America’s Cups were raced.Keywords:
