Last leg to Mackay Marina

11th to 13th Oct 2015

Well there is a break in the weather, only a 3 day window but we'll take it. We left the marina at 11am on the 11th and anchored at Funnel bay, yes I know not that far but it's a start to the journey, it's protected for the weather we are still getting.

Early start this morning, 12th Oct, woke up at 4.45am had anchor up by 5.00am, this photo was taken at 5.42am. By 9am the seas were getting rough so we decide we don't need to do this, so we headed for Shaw Island and anchored near Burning Point by 10am


Had a visitor at lunch time at Shaw Island.
 Early to bed tonight as we have another early start tomorrow, only 40 nautical miles to Mackay should only take us 8 hours.


Entering Mackay Marina at 11.30am, Made good time, only 6 and half hours.


A naked boom, both Head sail and Main sail have been removed and stored.
One of the jobs done.
