Fishing tomorrow? I don’t think so☹️
Landed Blenheim airport at 5pm - the ever reliable Allen from executive shuttles picked us up and had us at Havelock marina pier c by 6.15 after a quick shop for food at renwick. Gassed up and we headed down the sound 6.45 into a rising northerly and an outgoing tide an bumpy combo. Not a bad trip low vis rain Windy app had the gale holding off til 9ish and was bang on as usual. Got into the bay before 8 opened up the bach first time since April to find i had got the mouse we saw in the bottle trap and no more leaking - we pulled up the roof over xmas new insulation screwed back down and coated the whole thing in this special sealer then paint. Moored the boat 9ish wind started to really blow pitch black had to get the spotlight out to find the bouy. Got her tied up then had to wait till wind dropped to get in dingy atleast i got a tail wind to shore. Anyhow blew all night and rained up to 80k according to windy. Forecast is pretty much the same till home day on Monday so fishing unlikely but we have lots of food wine beer etc a shite load of firewood and starlink for internet- despite the weather really happy to be here in our special place.
