Sojourn at Magnetic Island
Despite the crowds we had three lovely days at Magnetic Island, exploring its beautiful bays, stretching our legs and catching up with friends.

After spending nearly three weeks working on Anui we finally left The Boat Works on 20 January to start our long awaited shake down cruise to Port Macquarie.
Au Revoir Take It Easy
Six weeks after we listed her online, Take It Easy is sold. We did well, particularly since there was the festive season in the middle of this period!
