Two years later

It is hard to believe that around this time 2 years ago I was in New Zealand, halfway through my Global adventure. This stopover would be the longest at 4 weeks. It was a wonderful 4 weeks, especially since we were 2nd in the leg and were joint 1st over-all in the race.

In hindsight leg 2 was the most physical and challenging due to variable wind which was around 18-26 knots.This prompted continous sail changes from the yankee 1 to the 3. Unfortunately we didn't record the total number of sail changes, though I'm sure if we went through the log book, we would get a pretty close number, I suspect it was over 100.

Here are a few photos that capture the beauty of the South Island.
