SKIPPER'S REPORT

Finally the weather pattern is nicely settled and we set out with clear skies and calm waters — Summer is finally here to stay! A great evening of fishing and night kayaking in the phosphorescence before settling down to relax by the fireplace. We've had frequent visits by the same pod of dolphins on the last couple of cruises and sure enough, they made another appearance during our return from our island stop as we made our way back to Paihia.
