Very enjoyable trip ! Conditions were not the best to be staying aboard but Chris had a backup plan for us to stay at his place which was really great ! He is very understanding and is flexible around the guests' needs. His knowledge about the Tasman is second to none and he really helped us find some good places to check out. Although we did not stay aboard we really enjoyed the trip because he made us feel very comfortable and hope to get another chance to try again in the near future!
