Welcome to Zenitude’s blog where you can follow us while we travel slow in our Lagoon catamaran. We update this blog frequently when we are cruising to let family and friends know where we are. Check the complete story of our adventures that started in 2006 when Zenitude became our home and cruising our way of life. Graciela and Oscar

Change of plans

One more low coming down the Tasman Sea did it. We changed plans. After receiving this forecast: 'a very intense low coming down close to Lord Howe Island next Sunday afternoon and night (14th) with gale force cyclonic winds. Once that has cleared, and the S winds ease on the NSW side of the Tasman, hopefully things may become more settled'.

We decided to take it easy and forget Sydney-New Zealand hard trip. Which means we won't visit Tonga, at least not this season.New plans now are Lord Howe Island (after the low clears), New Caledonia and Vanuatu. But, you never know, plans may change again.

In the meantime, while waiting for weather we finally installed our Camino 101 AIS system and we managed to integrate it with our Raymarine plotter. Now we can track big ships and they can see us, one hopes.
