Sailing Sailboat saved by teenager.
It’s been an emotional week with Chasing Stars leaving, Rob returning and near misses in the marina.
Rob’s last week in NZ was pretty hectic too. He went home for The Waikato 100 water sports race on the Waikato River and also got to spend time with our dog Del who is defying the vets prognosis that she would be dead by July. Del has an aggressive mast cell cancer, but her clean living lifestyle on Mike and Mady’s farm in the Waikato appears to be agreeing with her. Big heartfelt thanks to Mike and Mady for looking after Del so well.
Dare I say it, we owe Finn a debt of gratitude. His quick thinking save’s the day.
As always, a big thank you to the talented artists who have allowed us to use their music.
If you enjoy the music, please check out these tunes on spotify, websites and YouTube pages.
