A Challenging Sail in The Hauraki Gulf in New Zealand to Waiheke Island from Great Barrier Island

Episode 344 : Season 10 : New Zealand - Aotearoa Hello Friends, On this episode I haul up anchor at Great Barrier Island after an amazing stay and make way for Waiheke Island to hide from some approaching weather. The passage started out quiet but as the day progressed the seas started to build in the Hauraki Gulf and by the time I approached Waiheke the seas were charging and the winds were force 5. I eventually made my way around to the south side of the island and tucked into Putiki Bay in the howling winds.
