Hi

Well Hakura's registration has been fixed and I have the new certificate with the big red seal. Very official.

Tom, Aileen and I picked up the life raft we are hiring for the trip and that is now fixed to the cabin top.

Tomorrow morning (Friday 2nd) the safety inspector comes for the final visit.

The next big job is a new house battery. Not sure what that will cost, lots I'm sure.

The weather is not looking great for the weekend so I think we will clear customs on Tuesday and head out slowly (via a sheltered bay) till Wednesday morning when there will be 25 knot south easterlies to push us along.

Well that is the plan anyway.

Hopefully the next update will be from Tonga.

Enjoy your life, it is the only one you have.

Doug
