Magnetic Island

06 July 2016 | Magnetic Island Marina
Alice & Ted/sunny & hot
We left Eco Resort with a few dark clouds threatening rain. It has been so long since we needed wet weather gear that it took some time to locate this - just in case! Anyway we only got some light passing showers and then the sun reappeared. Just what we are used to. Our next stop was to anchor in Upstart Bay in the Lee of Cape Upstart - very shallow big bay but as wind had dropped a quiet night with a bit of wind/tide rolling. Off to an early start for Magnetic Island Marina. Very swish and attached to Peppers Resort so sharing their facilities - ie pool, spa - usual Marina stuff (not) - we may move in as permanent liveaboards. Ted and Winch are well and enjoying the trip. They are making notes so the can give advice on the way back. Pete is getting used to wearing shorts and I am now heading for the pool (or maybe the spa). Decisions!!!
