Arrival Opua!

Posted on November 8, 2014 by bob

Well almost...we are in the channel and headed for the Q dock...sailing in because we ran out of fuel. Details to follow when we have had some champagne and sleep...at the Q Dock, of course.

 

Land Ho!
Getting ready to enter the bay at Opua.
Approaching Q-Dock (quarantine) where we spent the night waiting to pass customs in the morning.
The very nice and professional customs and immigration officials.

    Ok, Bobby!
    Don't tell us you still had a jerry on deck. Great to hear you are safe, still sober but moving the other way, and just waiting for customs!

    Great news! Hope the parking under sail went well and the fizz was nicely chilled. Was that your fastest passage?
