The last few weeks has found us at Takapuna Holiday Park a few days a week while Fiona is at work. We’re right next to the Boat Ramp where there is never a dull moment. It has been hot with very little wind… until now š And its really nice.

Looking out of the front windows towards Rangitoto Island, you see Windsurfers and Kite Boarders mostly now on foils taking advantage of the wind, and its great to watch. Some of them doing tricks too, like leaping out of the water and doing complete turns. A couple of them were sailing backwards and forwards for about half an hour without even getting wet.. amazing.

Its really entertaining and most nights you can see a small regular bunch of people just coming down to the ramp to watch.
Foiling has really changed the nature of sailing everywhere and it is magic being able to watch it from our ringside seat in Rafe.
