We are home and safe after having sailed 131 kilometres. Here is a copy of the route we took in an anti-clockwise direction sailing around Lake Taupō. It took us a leisurely 4 nights, 5 days and we highly recommend this adventure to anyone capable or hitching a ride on a friends boat. We used 8 litres of fuel, 22 litres of drinking water, and 2 bottles of red wine along with a healthy dose of chocolate and a few cans of ready made food. Our boat is self sufficient with a small array of solar panels and we carried a port-a-loo. All in all a very inexpensive 5 day adventure. We will be back with more adventures like this one.
