A long sail today, left at 4am, and arrived here at 5pm. Not quite such good speeds as recently, but a very pleasant calm sail. Being inside the Barrier Reef (which as I mentioned is closer to the mainland here than further south) the water is pretty calm considering the wind strengths. So we are anchored between two islands of the Flinders Group with 5 other boats. Fishing boats also come here for the day and go off fishing at night time.
C, heard a geologist cruiser say there were stromatolites around here??
No fish caught in spite of being near islands and reefs all day - maybe because it is full moon, fishing is never good then. One dolphin seen, the first for a long time.
