Goldsmith and Shaw Islands


Such a serene time spent at Goldsmith, with perfect weather, glassy seas, kayaking around all the beaches, then celebrating Mr Bojangles 6th birthday with Olaf and Annie on Kathamaria II.  It was hard to leave, but the winds arrived and we sailed off to Shaw Island, another top spot. 



fish galore!

Speaking of spots, “Spot On”, power cat and our neighbour from Tin Can Bay Marina, arrived and anchored next to us.  After Peter caught a nice queenie, his fastest troll ever – 5 minutes! - Stephanie put us on to making numas or pickled fish.  

Luckily we had all the key ingredients, which we also use for most of our recipes: chilli, garlic, ginger and onion.  It was fabulous!

After riding out the strong SE winds for a few days we sailed off to South Molle Island just as Tony Longhurst’s “Cato” was sailing in to Shaw.  What a stunning cat!
