late yesterday the wind dropped and we motored into Bland Bay which is between Tutukaka and Cape Brett , a pleasant small bay. We anchored overnight and today it has been light variable wind as we sailed slowly along the coast . We are currently approaching Bream Head. Yesterday after I had sent the blog we were invaded by an immense cloud of thousands of sand flies which settled all over the boat . They did not bite us but were everywhere - most have blown away today - most odd,
Caught two barracuda today, they certainly have fearsome teeth - we did not fancy eating them and put them back into the water.
With the winds as they are it is still too soon to give an ETA
