Erica and the crew have had a busy 10 days sailing north through the Great Sandy Strait (GSS) to Hervey Bay. Boats and crews from all around the world are adding to the colour of our experiences. The weather has been fantastic and we’ve had some great sails in the relatively protected waters of GSS, past numerous sand banks, the Kingfisher Resort and Big Woody Island. During the last few days we have explored the holiday town of Hervey Bay, entertained friends and sailed out to Moon Point Bank/Island (photo)where we swam in crystal clear water before enjoying a superb lunch overlooking the azure blue backdrop framed by white sands and the occasional pod of dolphins frolicking by. Weather is predicted to be excellent for more island exploring and so we’re now setting off to spend time in Platypus Bay on the north western shores of Fraser Island before proceeding to explore more of the GSS with our first guest crew.

Hi Phil and Peta,
Good to see that you are underway and that all is well. We are a touch envious at this end.
Just remember, when you eventually sail into Darwin Harbour, we'll be waiting for you with a cold drink or two.
P&F
