Wilsons Promontory from the Sea

A friend of ours joined us for his first ever sailing trip from Port Albert to Wilsons Promontory, the southern most tip of mainland Australia.  We have known one another for many many years, however Trevor is the type who normally gets seasick just standing on a pier and avoids boats like the plague.

Bad News – Good News

Bad news: Long distance cruising is over for another year and it is hard to get back into land life! Good news: Our Cruise Journal is ready!  It is great to look back and relive some moments, and it is also nice to share it with those wanting to live the sailing life vicariously!

So what was it really like?

Now that we are back from our eight weeks at sea, covering an ambitious 1500 nautical miles from Yeppoon in North Queensland to Port Albert in Victoria, people have been asking us  “what was it like, really”? So here it is, warts and all.
