Kia Ora whanau,

What a day. We went for a colder then usual swim this morning. After duties we made our way out of Whangaroa harbor and went for a huuuuuuuge sail. It was the first day stepping into our team roles, in preparation for our visitors tomorrow. We did some maneuvers like jibing and generally tried not to feel too sea sick. After we rounded the nine pin it calmed down and we headed to Russell. We rounded out the day talking about a plan for tomorrow. We played some bang and now we are writing a blog. Chicken and chips for dinner coming up, yum.

Written with the lovely assistance of our delightful trainees.

Ma Te Wa.
