Another hard day

Wednesday 1st March
B was up to photograph the sunrise, but no swimming this morning. The water didn’t look nice as the outgoing tide brought dirty water from the Kerikeri river. Now two of the pontoons on the dinghy have been punctured and going down slowly. We lifted the dinghy onto the deck and covered with soapy water, but could not find the holes.
We put the dinghy back in the water and set off to explore the small islands around us (Te Pahi Islands). Several hours later we got back to Imagine, hauled anchor and headed off to do some fishing. We could only land under sized snapper, so we raised the headsail and sailed to Waiwhapuku bay.
We all worked on our tan lines interrupted by several swims. Andrew and B took the dinghy across to Motukiekie island to walk on the last of the islands. They arrived back in time for another swim before sundowners.
