Monday 23rd May
It got windy last night along with the swell creeping around the point making it a bit uncomfortable from the early hours of the morning. Daylight came and we were still getting rocked around. After breakfast it was all hands on deck. Tie the dinghy down, unzip the main sail, lash everything down and haul anchor.
With Sue at the helm trying to hold Imagine into the wind, Andrew and Jack raised the sails and we were off. Great Keppel here we come. Liz helmed most of the way to Keppel, with the 2.5m swell and 28kt winds pushing us along at 7kts.
Once at Keppel it was Toni and Jack lowering the main while Liz held Imagine into the wind. Liz maneuvered Imagine to the anchorage where Toni and Jack dropped anchor.
The afternoon was movie time as it was still raining lightly limiting what we can do.
