Good Bye Bundaberg

We managed to fill in the 2 extra days stay at Bundaberg and were glad we stayed as the wind from the SE was quite strong. On Sunday we went to the RSL club for a drink and when we discovered the $10.00 steak lunch stayed for that as well. They were selling tickets for the meat raffle so both Geoff and I purchased$5.00 each and we both won a tray of pork chops. What we are going to do with 16 large pork chops will challenge my cooking skills. On Tuesday morning we followed the tide back along the Burnett River and arrived at the entrance at midday. We anchored just outside the marina and had a very quite night. I started pulling up the anchor chain at 0530 this morning and getting the liberal coating of mud off it took a while. We are currently sailing on a calm flat sea with about an 8 knot SE breeze in perfect conditions. Our destination this afternoon is Urangan Boat Harbour where we will probably take a marina berth for the night.
