And then there were 6 ? Here's a little fly-by picture reel of our second fur-baby Smidge ? Rescued by Laura from under a green wheelie-bin at a teeny 500g - almost died of gastroenteritis but came back from the brink and never left (much to Ross's initial disapproval ?). We've had her a little while now but until we were completely confident she was suited to boatlife we kinda kept it schtum ?. Turns out she won't leave the boat even if the windows and hatch are wide open but she does love to hang out during a spot of yoga on deck? Ronnie took her under his furry paws like nothing you've ever seen and their love is something else! Who else has rescue kitties on board and would pick take all the strays home if they could? ??????????????????????

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. ??

The anticipation of launching our tiny liveaboard that we just bought in September, but have never sailed yet, is just coming to a head! There have been multiple delays from the marina: first we were told that we could launch as soon as we were ready, which was May 4th weekend. Then we were told that it couldn't be launched until marina opening which was May 15th. They weren't ready because they are repairing many of the docks? Long story short (too late!) they attempted to launch us May 21st but couldn't fit the travel lift between the two boats neighbouring us? Finally, they promised Saturday May 25th 8am?
