Re: Traveled to 9 countries without a passport

Yes they did. Am im sure they all had passports and visas when the arrived in Australia. The only reason they are there is because Australia loves them to much and wont let them leave haha.

Re: Traveled to 9 countries without a passport

There is no way you could get entry to New Zealand without a passport. You would be deported on the next flight. This guy sounds like a complete idiot and i hope he is in jail now.

Re: Rules for boating the Ganges?

First rule:
Dodge all the bodies floating down!
Of all the places you could go boating in the world, why there?

Re: NZ to Tahiti in early May

As above.
Go as far South as you can to get into the Westerly's then swing up under your destination.
Dont leave it to late in the summer unless you like being cold :)

Re: From Australia/NZ to Canada, or part of the trip in feb/mar

Perfect doesnt really cut it. Sailing that far upwind is hard work. Do it the easy way. Fly to the US buy the boat then sail to Australia sell the boat make some money and repeat or keep sailing West.

From Dec to April you probably wont find any boats moving around the South Pacific.

Re: My four year plan

Hi there,

If you regretted not doing it at 22, DO NOT let another 4 years slip away! Buy the boat now and use it more and more until you are ready to venture further.

Re: NZ GST

Anything you import in to NZ over about $750 you must pay GST. I have imported cars and you still have to pay gst and im sure planes would be the same. Maybe no duty but still the GST.
