Well, these Qld weather guys know their weather, they got it spot on – it blew up to about 25 knots all day in gusts 8 knots and then whack a 20+ gust which shifted Phalt Chat as she tugged on her anchor, which thankfully was well bedded down by the faithful crew. Today was “make and mend” as they say in the RAN. We pottered and did a few things around the boat, a nice lazy day. We met Klaus and Maria who have sailed out from Germany and been at it since 1991. Makes Sydney to Whitsundays seems like a day trip really. Tomorrow we might go to Shaw Island or we might stay here – these are important decisions and not to be taken lightly. It will take a couple of coffees to work this out in the morning (assuming the weather stays good tonight!).
