As will all capes, I keep a proper distance as to be sure that I sail free from the rocks, as I am scared always for those undiscovered rocks.
After sailing through the Cook Strait, yesterday, no time to make any visits as the race is still on-goiong. The sailing along the East coast of Northern island went smooth in nice strong breeze.
Now the sailing is west toward Great Barrier Island, with the Auckland Finish as a target.
The winds are still very nice, southerly and just below 10 kts. I will try to make as much miles as possible, as the wind forecast tells me that the winds towards the west are weaker and also start veering into the SW; as you guessed it, just the direction I have to sail towards the Finish!
