24 May 2022, the crew on Steinlager 2 welcomed 24 students and teachers, from Otahuhu College, onboard for two days and one night. These trips are incredibly action packed. It’s a case of, ‘hold on to your hats crew, we have lots to do’. As per every school we strive to deliver the right balance of teaching sailing, having fun and making lasting memories. Phew.. Sailing, leadership, laughing, team building games on shore and onboard, swimming, kayaking, laughing, cooking and cleaning. We even managed a sleep in there! 😊 The Viaduct, Motuihe Island, hoisted all three sails and had a magic sunset sail, gliding up around Rakino and the Noises Islands into Waikalabubu Bay, Motutapu Island for dinner and the night. After the clean up next morning, a very stimulating, exhilarating short blast (sail) back to more games on shore on the NE side of Motuihe Island. We delivered a buzzing bunch of good sorts, later that afternoon back to the Viaduct. ALL OF THIS was very very kindly funded by the Auckland Maritime Foundation. ❤️

Awesome time-lapse video of the new J/121 Offshore Speedster- a 40-foot boat designed for #sailing offshore with less crew! This video shows the hull plug "rough cut" being created at Symmetrix in Bristol, RI using a 5-axis CNC machine- amazing how fast a 40 foot plug can be created! Just 3 days! Next up? The "fine tuning" and final finish to 800# finish with 0.01mm tolerances! For more J/121 #sailboat information- http://www.jboats.com/j121
