Need to decide whether we head to the south via the east or west coast… But after a couple of days in Nelson at the marina I had itchy feet to get going. It was great to get the sails up and actually had a pretty awesome sail! Cruising at consistently 8-9 knots so that was nice! We pulled in to an anchorage sooner than planned as we were losing the daylight. A shallow bay so just lifted the keel up! 👌
