Another long day’s sail and a bit lumpy into Island Head Creek
where we caught up with “Bamboozle” for sundowners.
Up again just before break of day to try to
reach Great Keppel Island in one day.
Plenty of whales still around and pods of dolphins to keep us amused. With a good downwind run we were able to sail
at 7 knots until the wind picked up to 20 knots, then changed from screecher to
genoa and the wind kept building.
Eventually we gave up on the main and still ran at 8 knots on the genoa. When the wind hit 30 knots we even reefed the
genoa and still arrived before scheduled.
