Rnz: Afternoons With Jesse Mulligan

Opua in the Bay Of Islands is currently host to a flotilla of 25 boats. They're waiting for the right weather conditions before hoisting anchor and setting sail on 2024 Pacific Rally, which is a six month voyage across the ocean. This year - for the first time ever - the sailors have also been recruited for a huge science experiment. James Frankham, co-founder of Citizens Of The Sea, the charity behind the effort speaks to Jesse.
