It was worth crawling out of bed in the half light this morning to see the moon set. I knew it would be pretty, but I hadn’t counted on another yacht being anchored in the perfect position to add another layer to the photo. (Sadly that time of day is when I miss Zeus most Continue reading

I Found Veritas!!
So there we were motoring into Scarborough Marina with our hiccupping outboard motor and the first sailing vessel I spot is Veritas! She looks remarkably like Conor’s boat in Northern Heat and she’s even the right length! It’s a blue moon tonight – the second full moon in the month of July – and we Continue reading
Let’s go fly a kite!

The lads in the nearby tinnies may have been justifiably nervous as Roobi wiggled her way through 360 degree turns left and right. Nothing has sounded so Continue reading
Clunks, bangs and flashing blue lights…
Complacency is the mother of all evil. Today she came visiting… After a gentle start to the day with a golden sunrise at Macleay Island we headed for Manly to collect the mail and a pot of tint for gel coat repairs.

Safe Harbour
Dux anchorage on the western side of South Stradbroke Island has proven to be a wonderful safe harbour for us for the last two nights. The storms that swept through last night, leaving us rocking at anchor instead of bobbing, cleared the air for a gorgeous morning. Zeus even woke up refreshed after his valium Continue reading
