After listening to the weather report last night, it looks like we’re going to have to pass on Bay of Plenty this year. There’s a huge storm forecast to hit this afternoon, so we’re going to have to ride it out in Weld Cove, just south of Bay of Plenty.
When we got to Weld Cove, the wind was gusting up to 30 knots, but there was no fetch and we were anchored in only 60 feet of water, so we were very comfortable. They were reporting winds up to 60 knots out in Laredo Sound.
