Sunday 30th September 2007
Since leaving Hamilton Island on 25th September we have been moving south quite quickly due to light NE winds. Travelling with Windsong and Dame Margot.
First stop was Mackay, Middle Percy (White Bay, beautiful), Delcomyn Bay (numerous whales that day, one appeared less than 30 metres off the back of the boat - I could see his/her barnacles), Great Keppel (Long Beach - a lovely walk) and then arrived at Pancake Creek around 5pm yesterday. Drinks on board Misty Blue.
Departed Pancake Creek this morning at 6 am and will be in Bundaberg this afternoon for a few nights to reprovision. Heading south while the weather is in our favour. Plan to leave Bundaberg on Wednesday and head for Kingfisher Resort (Fraser Island).
