Yesterday we had a prefect crossing of the Cook Strait finishing in Elmslie Bay, from there this morning we transited through French passage and into Tasman Bay, making our way down the coast to our final destination......Nelson
.
Just from a sailors perspective  the 10 days it has taken to deliver ‘Duende’ has be filled with some interesting and colourful moments. There were times when we had too much wind for a comfortable ride and others where there was none, the one constant in all of this was that it appeared that mother nature was fighting us all the way. Though all of this the crew carried on without a word, this shows the Steel of the crew on board that participated in this adventure and my thanks go out to Alex Oliver and Daniel.
 
Our ETA to Nelson Marina is 1330 so this is the last of the blogs I shall post for this trip, I hope everyone enjoyed the drivel that I wrote so:-
 
Kind Regards from the crew of ‘Duende’
 
Daniel, Mark & Alex
