The blue and yellow ship is actually a car carrier named 'Grand Cosmo'  (info from marinetraffic.com)

Jumped up to take a photo of the dock full of cars only to find we had slipped away.

Looks like a wet day in the Bay today.Noordams tenders are shown on Marine Traffic as heading direct to Paihia .Where are Radiance tenders landing ?
Here’s a shot showing Noordam , Radiance is anchored a bit further out.

Rain is badly needed in the North , they are approaching drought conditions , so the rain is very welcome. 
The heavy rain is way down South and up North here we get the heat waves that drift over from your big Island .

Headed for home on the map. It's not gonna fit under the (Swansea) bridge! Maybe you could bribe the Master to drop-off in Port Hunter.
