I love your video. We were in the same area later that same year. We sailed from Doubtful Sound and spent our first night at anchor in Wetjacket Arm. I now have two beautiful photos on my wall that I took that first morning. We then sailed into Dusky Sound and the areas you were in.
Spectacular scenery, monster crayfish, and traffic jams at sea in the most unlikely places. What an adventure! Superbly filmed and wonderful narration. Bravo.
Great footage. Is your yacht grp or wooden also? Im looking at a lotus 10.6, all grp and wondering if its up for the job of something like this, cheers
Taranto is all grp, there are many wooden ones about as well. I think they are suitable, but I'm a little biased ;-) the bigger ones even more so. Alan Wright the designer made fabulous boats.
Hi Gerrit, sadly no, currently in northern Italy. But if you are in the area I can recommend Mapua Wharf and the small photographic museum there run by the Mapua Boat Club :-)
I live in Nelson ...we have a 32 foot Cavalier..happily learning to sail...if you're ever about and have time for coffee i'd love to say hello. This is me www.garyhoogvliet.com
No, im sure you're not. Apologies if it caused distress. Humans have cooked them in this way for thousands of years because they contain bacteria that multipies rapidly when dead and may produce toxins not totally eliminated by the cooking process. So if anyone choses to eat them at all, it's unfortunately the prefered method.

Will do Gary! Lovely vessels the Cav 32's and Tasman Bay is a splendid place to have one, what is the name of it? I'll keep an eye out :-)
