Wednesday 22nd February.
Peaceful passage over! Torrential rain, squalls and now 30+
knots of wind welcome us to New Zealand.....We are tearing past Farewell Spit, a
low lying hook of sand that forms the southern side of the western entrance
between North and South Islands. We have had to inform customs
that yacht Duet with 2 POB, (two pensioners ) on board, will arrive
in Nelson tonight, roughly about midnight.... yes we have to clear in no matter
what hour of time and can't go to the marina until that has happened...... well
photographs and more details tomorrow. Its going to be a long
night.
