July storm

 




These were the Waitohi Wharf readings at 2 am on the Saturday morning when it really started to get going. Then it just went on and on until eventually there was 187 mm (7.5 inches) in 24 hours.

Genuine Gardner Parts

 

Genuine Gardner Parts

Two oil filters, two secondary fuel filters, two crankcase breather filters. Also an injector puller because it may soon be time to clean and set the injectors. These parts come from one of my favourite places to shop - Gardner Spare Parts

Waikawa fog

 

Waikawa

Not unusual to get fog at this time of year, with the low sun it can create some moody mornings. This shot was taken by Sue while walking Poppy along the eastern breakwater at Waikawa marina. Something worth noting is the very high barometer - 1038 hPa - creating very calm, cold conditions.
