Cruising the Pacific
I set off for New Zealand without knowing exactly which route
I would take. What eventuated was an interrupted cruise
through New Zealand then a wonderful cruise through the islands of the
Pacific.
In 2004 we undertook a Pacific Cruise to New Zealand, Tonga,
Fiji, Vanuatu and home to Bundaberg.
- Tasman Crossing
Like Bass Strait can get rough but you have to choose your crossing
time. We started on the wrong foot so had to battle through
three days of bad weather - but that just showed how good a boat Malua
really is!

vacation period. There are a number of overseas cruising
