And now some sailing....

Click for JPEG Sailing on Lake Tutira

Lake Tutira is a small Lake and bird sanctuary in the North Island. My family and I often spend a week or two there in summer, sailing our "fleet" of small sailing dinghies. This is Psyche, a P class (NZ only) dinghy, and Octopus, and International Optimist. (Octopus has the blue green sail) We also have "hovding", a Sunburst class (NZ only) dinghy, which is 11' 6" long, and carries main, jib, and spinnaker.

The same boats in a different pose. These are my wife and three sons sailing them. Soon I hope to add a picture of my own boat, Hovding.
