Easter 2024

filleting a fish on an orange bench
Complete mastery

Went on board Good Friday and sailed on the Saturday morning. Carried the tide to Tawero then punched the ebb up Tawhitinui Reach to Hallam Cove. Families holidaying in the baches. The south easter doesn't get in there unless it's strong.  The breeze died away to nothing overnight and Easter Sunday was the best day, calm, and warm at times. Fished at Bird Island but slim pickings. Sue caught two fat cod off the rocks in Homestead Bay, and did an amazing filleting job; she really has mastered the art. On the Monday we carried the tide all the way back into Havelock; systems all worked, 77nm in all.
