Gone Cruising

Arrived at Swan Island at 2.30pm. It was a lovely sail as the wind was behind us and blowing 25 to 35 kts. We ran the Genoa only and our max sustained speed was 8.6 kts although we had a tide running with us as well.

The beaches are white and very pristine. There is a swell so we are not going ashore-also it is quite cold. We anchored in a very protected spot-I have renamed it bundie city, as there are some large rocks we did not notice when we came it, it was only as the tide started falling that they exposed themsleves. The anchorage guide said there was one rock and lots of weed, so we assumed the dark bottom was weed (never assume anything). We eventually moved to a more sandier spot as we were rubbing against the rocks.

Paul and Tamara slaughtered Tracy and Samanatha at Canasta tonight, there will be another challenge later this week.
