Rough Seas & Building Winds Calls for A Change of Course in the Hauraki Gulf ; Always Have A Plan C

Episode 346 : Season 10 : New Zealand – Aotearoa

Hello Friends,
On this episode I depart Auckland with the intention of sailing to the Coromandel Peninsula. Shortly after leaving Auckland harbour I was excited to see a pod of four Orcas casually swimming by. In a very short time the winds went from nothing to Force 5 and building short period seas. Realizing it was impossible to make it around the Peninsula, I switched to Plan B and then quickly to Plan C, Running form Hooks Bay on Waiheke Island.

Arriving after dark, I kept in as close as I dared, dropped the hook and collapsed.
