A day of relaxation






The weather forecasts continue to confuse, they are just plain wrong much of the time and certainly contradictory. Not so good when trying to plan the next days sail. Anyway we will probably leave it until Friday to head towards Whangarei, stopping over in the Hen and Chicken Islands so that we get a clear morning run on a rising tide up the estuary to Whangarei.


We decided to spend a quiet day and motored around to the next bay, Forestry Bay, and just relaxed, apart from unsuccessfully trying to catch fish. 


This has a DoC hut but we decided not to go ashore. A couple of house boats in the Bay, it was very sheltered. Very clear water, we just enjoyed the tranquility; thought provoking.
