Hello Friends,
Once the storm had passed, I hauled up and made way for Auckland Harbour. Finally settling into an anchorage I had spent a fair amount of time at in the past, Little Shoal, I headed over to Westhaven Dinghy dock and into Auckland CBD to visit Boat Books bookstore and the New Zealand Maritime Museum.

Totally dig the vintage wooden boats...works of art. Auckland seems to have sort of a Vancouver B.C. vibe.
That looks like a cool place to explore.
Hey James thanks for another awesome episode mate! Cheers
Hi James, don’t forget Australian won the Americas cup off the Americans first on 27 September 1983 after 132 years of domination, if you come to Brisbane, there is a small navel museum that has pink lady, which is the youngest woman 16 years old (Jessica Watson ) to sail around the world single-handedly, and they also have the last steam powered tug on display with a few other bits and pieces it’s not as good as that New Zealand Museum but I think it’s well worth the look Cliff from Logan City Queensland Australia 🇦🇺
James, just recently started following your journey. Beautiful Brother... keep showing others how to live the dream!
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hey James - did you realise you caught Michael McKean on camera at 10:05? He's coming out of the boat shop. A lead character in Better Call Saul and was in lots of other things like Billions. I'm 99.9% sure it's him!
What makes you say that
You're showing a lot of places that "The Old Seadog" (Barry) showed on his voyage. I'm really taken back by how different your experience is from his. Poor Barry always seems to have such a hard time with everything, and always wanting a beer at the end of the day. But you're so chill, you have a cheerful attitude most of the time, and you seem to only have gratitude for all of your experiences. Anyway, that's my comment. Thanks for the videos and fair winds.
Someone’s attitude always determines a good time from what others might perceive as a struggle. I was raised to not think I was entitled to everything being easy, which ironically has made my life much easier.
Word! @@SailorJames
Poor ol Barry….He’s a dramatic one! LOL
Well Barry is English so it wouldn't be right if he didn't complain a bit. ;-) Besides Barry is getting on in life and I must admit I'm impressed with what he does do. Thanks for the museum visit James. I left NZ 25 years ago. Things sure have changed. My old stomping grounds in Auckland seem to have disappeared. One day I'll sail back.
Like it. @@SailorJames
I've been watching you since I missed you by one day in Oahu at the marina. Very insparational, thanks for sharing.
Great video James. I lived in Auckland for a year in my early twenties but at the time I didn't really have sailing on my radar. So thank you for showing me what I missed back then :)
😂😂😂
Really enjoyed seeing Auckland, beautiful place. With your passion and love for all things maritime, you must have found New Zealand to be Nirvana.
It is mind-blowing that before technology was avaialble, people managed to cross oceans in handmade wooden boats - those people must have had a keen intelligence and affinity with the Earth, true Masters. Thank you and Happy Sails.
The fact that the people who became known as Polynesians were able settle the largest ocean on the planet with no knowledge of the existence of metal or of compasses is truly remarkable. Their ability to wayfind using the stars, birds, swells and clouds is mind blowing!
Thanks for the rad footage of inside the museum and heritage boats at the end.
Every country wants the ugly jug. 🙂 Brilliant museum.
OMG you are an absolute legend, next birthday I be 60 and just getting started on sailing . Love your channel bro from NZ
What a surprise to see all that city around you! I didnt even know there were Marine Bookstores. That was a great museum, they put a Lot into it. I wish you had more time on the video. Aucklands was/is aparently a very sea dependent city. Those Yatchs!! I dont even have a word for them. That one was 1897 ?? (saved from being scrapped) Then 1904? That one you went on was SO beautiful too. All it takes is time, a lot of $$ and...heart. Thank you, as always.
Enjoyed yet another episode fantastic.
While you're over there, James, maybe tell 'em to stop messing up the America's Cup. ;o)
💀💀💀💀💀
At 3 or 4 mins in, the latitude is wrong. More like 36 or 37 rather than 39.
We need to get James an eye patch to wear in his next video!
Ohh shame you couldn't go to have look on that RC sailboat race. Anyway Hi James cool upload. Thank you
Yeah, those IOM sailors are really serious sailors.
Brilliant, just so refreshing to see all this. Been to South Island but not the north thanks for the glimpse
Thanks for sharing this, James. You're doing a lot to inspire people in this new golden age of sailing.
Totally underrated comment.
I recently found an Alberg 35 in Los Angeles and it was gone in a couple days. The selling owner said the new buyer mentioned James and Triteia too.
Godspeed James, you are such an inspiration
Safe travels, hello from Texas 🤠🤙
It’s called NEW ZEALAND
It clearly says AOTEAROA on your passports 😂😂😂
@@SailorJames just because the government has done that doesn’t mean we agree with it
🤡🤡🤡
@@SailorJames yeap u right they are clowns

Outstanding episode, James! Thanks!
