The big Coastal Classic race is this weekend and I will be heading out on a boat Stratocaster. You can follow the race @ www.coastalclassic.co.nz . So far 226 boats have registered so it will be really messy at the start line. The weather is supposed to be fair and I only hope that we will have a good southerly wind so we do not have to sail against the wind. The race will start off Devonport Wharf and finish off Russell Wharf in the Bay of Islands. It is just a short one about 16 hours but if the wind will be bad we could go much longer than that. We will take some rest Saturday morning. Drink a little Saturday evening and then there will be a price ceremony on Sunday. We will be heading home sometimes Sunday afternoon so we get back by Monday evening or so. It is a holiday on Monday so I only had to take Friday off.
I have been really good last few days. Just had these few days when I was in a really good mood for no apparent reason at all. I still miss my friends from Cali but I have so much on the plate right now that I am happy when I get to bed at night. The coastguard 3 days a week + weekends out on a water if I am not sailing with Stratocaster. I am still learning a lot everyday in my new job so sometimes I take a nap on the ferry going home. I wanted to post something because I will be gone but I hope to take some great pictures an post them when I get back.
