After being checked in into New Zealand there’s time to explore the bay. But first it’s time for a reunion with Glennis, who took great care of us last time we were in NZ.
Lovely film. I was luck enough to visit New Zealand in 1992 for 4 weeks and loved the country, What a fantastic house your friend has overlooking the Bay of Islands.
Welcome to NZ once more, we have just started following you both and love your catamaran! Enjoy sailing in NZ with the challenging weather, the remoteness, raw beauty and little surprises along the way. As New Zealanders and new sailing/cruisers of 5 years we have seen a different side of our country via water and love every minute we are onboard. Thanks for sharing your stories.
Thanks guys. Seeing this video reminded me of how cold NZ summers are. Beautiful country, beautiful people, a lot of crap weather 😁. Keep the awesome videos coming
@@taniac1860 Kek...C'mon Kiwi m8, NZ doesn't get a real summer. This video reminds me of the 6 summers I spent at Mt Maunganui. The last summer's 16* average temp was enough for me to move to Queensland...lowering NZ's IQ in the process 🤣
I just found your channel, I love it so does my wife, we're in the market for a catamaran and an Outremer at that we have a four-year wait though so we just have to carry on with our current boat. Hope to see more of your amazing content, keep up the good work.
With so many slots sold you might get lucky and get an earlier one. Especially if you’re aiming at the less popular ones in the European fall or winter
Great to see my home country again.. I have t been home to New Zealand in over three years (Covid and other reasons) unfortunately it’s spring and there for a lot of unsettled weather.
Spring in NZ can be challenging 😄 can expect any and all type of weather, even on the same day, but will get better and better 👍😄 Looks like you’re having a great time though 👍
Kia ora! Haere mai, welcome to Aotearoa :) I've loved catching up with your channel. I'm on the Coromandel with an FP. If you're down this way and want to check out some local spots by boat or land let me know!! :)
where in Whangarei are you? my friend Renate could say hi she has much local knowledge in case you need any. (she was the first german woman firefighter in the 80's)
No pictures allowed here in the comments but a Tokyo Mule in 8 in Whangarei costs 18 dollars (nzd). Really hope this will help you in your decision to come over or not
