Back From Hiatus 2015

Close to three years since our last blog posting we are back again. The intervening time has seen us reposition and reclaim life ashore. Regrettably Musketelle has only been sailed briefly in the Hauraki Gulf during this time compared with her earth girdling endeavours.  But she is in view every day parked on her home base mooring in front of our residence on the Tamaki River.  The day before Christmas she got her long promised haulout at Halfmoon Bay Marina.  The picture shows her on the hard in exactly the same spot she occupied in 2006 before the circumnavigation.
We have lifted in numerous boatyards around the world but Dean and the team at Halfmoon Bay take the honours for operating the smartest tidiest hardstand and boatyard operation we have come across.
