It’s been all go here in New Zealand for the past few weeks as we prepared to head to Vanuatu on our beautiful lead yacht Magic Roundabout.
After a short stay in Whangarei town basin, MR sailed up to Opua in the Bay of islands.
After two days in Opua, she finally left New Zealand on Friday 27th May with: Ian our so patient skipper, Grace the project leader, Rachel the dive master and Jen our film maker!
