Ive recently noticed that the waters around NZ are somewhat rougher than the
Med (haha, caught in 30kt winds,1.5m waves at full sail...scary for me!

)
I have little sailing experience, only a dozen or so assisted trips in the
Med (Greek islands) but Ive now taken a leap and bought myself my first yacht a 23ft
bilge keeler (Alan Wright) ... Does anyone have any experience ;
advice and tips for sailing the bays around Abel Tasman national park in NZ?
