So the cruising life has been put on hold for a while, but this is our dream home- Well it has the potential to be our dream home with alot of hard yakka! It is in the Middle Boambee valley, 5 minutes south of Coffs Harbour. 3 bedroom brick house with granny flat downstairs on 6000 square metres (1.5 acres).

Three
I have a full time job working as a marketing coordinator at a real estate company. Peter has a 3 month block of work at a local high school.

Yesterday we took Jura for a spin, taking part in the twilight race. It was blowing a good 25knots and all onboard had a blast. Our crew consisted of my dad Alan, brother Rhys, houesemate-to-be Joel Barker, cruising friends Tanya and Dudley who we met in Tonga, Sean from a yacht on our wharf (Sean is in a wheelchair!) and local sailmaker Peire.

Other news includes:
We won the NS14 national titles at Manly Queensland over christmas.
We are currently living at my mum and dads whilst Sydney friends Joel and Amanda live on Jura.
Joel and Amanda will be living with us at our new house.
We take the keys for the house on the 4th March.

Thats about it.
