We woke to a cloudy morning with a cool wind blowing across the marina. After breakfast I filled the water tanks, secured the jerry cans of diesel and by 9.45am we had slipped our lines and were motoring out of the marina.

It is a short sail across to Great Keppel Island, perhaps two hours at the most. It was a pleasant sail, despite the cloud cover which was slowly lifting. Once at the Island we anchored amongst 20 or so other boats, most of which were motor craft out for the weekend. It was pretty rolly here so we had some lunch and motored around to the north east bays. It was just as rolly here but much quieter. Also our companion cruiser "Grand Cru" was here! We waved to them as we went past. After dropping the anchor we went ashore in the tender and explored the beach. Louise went for a swim.

Back on Breezly we settled in for a rolly night. We watch a little TV after dinner before we lowered the dinette for Louise to sleep on while I slept in the aft cabin. I decided to try and catch tomorrow's tide through the Narrows at midday so it would be an early start in the morning.
