Spent yesterday morning going through the new (to me) boat getting familiar with nav, solar etc. then took it out to Tiritiri Matangi (specifically to see how it handled the 1.5m short chop). Saw my Coastguard crew out training and they came to say hi. (And Reg the skipper took a pic of me 😂)

Nice! Looks like it was a great time :-)

The weather did produce a rainbow or two. Here’s a pic taken from the Coastguard boat yesterday. The approaching thunderstorm helped create the rainbow.

Simrad! Used to make them.
