The strong winds forecast for Monday arrived on Tuesday and into Wednesday but it is so peaceful and beautiful here in the bay that we have stayed a couple of days watching other boats come in for shelter from a beastly east’ly. At present it is quite an international group; a Dutch couple who have been sailing around the world for 7 years and are still a long way from home, a French ketch, two large catamarans, a Beneteau cruiser Belle Époque and Josh, a lone young man in a tiny craft heading for Weipa and the NT, which I believe stands for not today, not tomorrow, not Tuesday and not Thursday. We have spent today on maintenance and cleaning and all is in readiness for the Hinchinbrook Channel tomorrow.
