Well I have the figures for Wind Dancers II voyage from Fiji.
Departed marina and clearance at 11. 45 hrs Friday 3 September and arrived Nelson 0400 hrs Wednesday 15 September, 2010.
Distance : 1657 nautical miles
Time : 12 days , 7 hours, 15 minutes.
Average speed: 6.11 knots
We think that is a good effort.
My thanks go to the crew, team work was excellent and we all got on well. Overcome a number of problems with some of the systems on board, e.g.blocked toilet pipes, air in the fuel system ! No gear or sail failures which was so important when we were in in Force Four plus winds for all of the jorney.
