A good northerly on the quarter makes for easy running home. Point the bow south-west, and follow the Kermadec Ridge for a thousand miles towards the blue horizon.
Some days the light will be sharp and the conditions benign, other times the boat will be a rollercoaster careening on the edge of control.
Six hundred nautical miles from the mainland is far enough to protect the Kermadecs from the ravages of most fishing, invasive species and pollution. And it makes the prospect of prospecting less likely too… But it’s not far enough to escape the reach of climate change which threatens to change the chemistry of the ocean itself. Our decisions over the next 10 years will determine the fate of these islands forever.
