Cape York off to port, Sea Child around and at anchor Monday, June 13, 2013. Hiked to the end of the tip of Australia, very cool to stand on the cape after all the hard work to get there! Clear skies, winds SE to 30 knots. Simpson Bay achorage for night, then to Seisia and the ferry to Thursday Island for some R&R. Preparing to cross the Gulf of Carpenteria and head into Northern Territory towards Darwin.
