Don D'Rio - we accept your challenge!

 So Don D'Rio - you have laid down the gauntlet and we have risen to the challenge! 

Although the pirates agreed to a morning splash after consuming a couple of bottles of red the night before! 

Anchored in Sandy Bay, Abel Tasman, gorgeous aqua-marine seas, water temperature 15.2, flat calm, no alcohol required!  (But a vodka schnapps would have been nice).



The 3 bonny pirates after their dip.











Great photography Commodore.  John rivalled Don D'Rio in time spent in the water.









Looking pretty hot Mermaid No. 2 










Skipper - where's the hot water?








A musical send off for John - we will miss your smiley face!

And then there were four!!

Exploring Paterson Inlet

Image
 Paterson Inlet - a massive harbour of calm, sheltered waters.  Picturesque little islands with names such as Refuge Island, Crayfish, Bravo, Groper ... the boys caught 3 blue cod and hooked a 1.5m to 2m shark!!  Passed the remnants of a whaling station, bush right to the water's edge, chorus of bird song, the odd bach peeking through native bush, seals sunbathing on the beach, penguins and shags.  Watermaker at work producing 100 litres of water per hour for our hot showers.  Anchored 5pm at Glory Cove. Another awesome day aboard Mimu. It's cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey! Guy doing a quick keel haul in 11.7 degree waters Fillets of straight from the ocean blue cod, pan fried with leek and creme fraiche Ahoy me Matey!! Tied up to a wannabe palm tree. Practicing our "stern to" anchoring ready for Fiji (or maybe the  fiords first) This is how the rats get aboard!!
