We've owned NV for over 6 months now and I've missed out on writing about a lot. There was our first night onboard, listening to the waves slap against our new gigantic flat hull. Or the time we had help from a fleet of friends in dinghies to load onboard the 16 sails, 2 coffee grinders, tuff luff, 2m carbon bow sprit, 4 more pipe berths, 2 anchors and more that we'd collected from the previous owner's container. Thanks Antje for driving us with your trailer! We had our first party onboard for Timo's birthday tied up to the Opua Cruising Club dock and our first few sails in the bay with friends, hoisting each of the 6 gennakers!
