Completed tacking drills early yesterday afternoon and then proceeded to anchorage at Mayor Island. Mayor Island is very beautiful and we anchored in snug little cove in crystal clear water.
Despite a lack of good sailing wind yesterday afternoon, we made the most out of the fine weather and conducted an inter-watch deck Olympics. Highly spirited and fun contest.
Early afternoon yesterday had the ship sailing across Hawke Bay in light NE winds. Preparations were being made for a swim when the afternoon sea breeze came in at 20kts from the East.
Youth Crew embarked yesterday and had all onboard by 1530. Following a quick hello and introductions proceeded at 1600 and went to nearby anchorage within Wellington Harbour.
