Auckland sailing











24th March. We booked a trip out in the harbour on a sailing boat, `Ted Ashby`. This was run by retired men who volunteered so that they could still get out on the water. They were really friendly and interesting to talk to. Steve and I chatted to them and Em read a book!
It was lovely to be out in the fresh air again. The weather was great and just enough wind to get the boat sailing. The boat was called a scow, it had 2 masts and a centreboard which could be raised up and down.
