Sailing from Auckland to Bay of Islands, New Zealand

Episode 059 We finally finish our lap of the Hauraki Gulf and head back to the Bay of Islands completing T?iko's shakedown cruise. We've all come back different from this trip. T?iko has come back as a CAT 1 registered vessel ready for her first offshore passage and successfully completing her shakedown cruise. Adam as a more confident skipper of T?iko and Vicki as a more confident sailor. Now we wait for the right weather window for Fiji. We hope you enjoy it! As always, thanks for watching. Sincere thanks to Charlotte Rockstar Jones for composing and recording Te T?iko's theme song. Please remember to subscribe, like, comment - it helps us out!

A nomadic duo who traded land life for a life afloat. Follow us to see what we see and what it's like living a nomadic lifestyle. After spending 2.5 years exploring New Zealand's coastline, T?iko is now a CAT 1 registered boat and we have made our first offshore passage sailing from New Zealand to Fiji where we currently are. In December 2021 we moved aboard our sailboat Te T?iko, a Chico 40. T?iko is our floating home. She gives us the freedom to go anywhere the wind and weather allows. Our plan? We try not to make too many plans but we're currently in Fiji and will see where wind and sea will take us next. In the meantime, follow along with us as we navigate this lifestyle whilst sharpening our skills sailing New Zealand waters. We release a new video every Sunday. #boatlife #boat #travelvlog #digitalnomad #lifestyle #sailing #travel #sailinglife
