Our current position is: 14 20 425S and 144 38 624 N
We are anchored off a little island back at the mainland in Ninian Bay after having left Lizard Island in what has got to be the first and only day of really great sailing we've had for as long as we can remember.
The winds were 15 to 18 knots from the southeast and the seas were even more considerate by remaining very flat. It was a fabulous day out there.
And, to top it all off, Paul caught our very first fish since being in Australia; a nice sized Spanish mackeral big enough for about 10 meals.
We dropped anchor about 3:30 in the afternoon; we kept the run short as Peter on Troutbridge is now following us and he's quite a bit slower. He arrived a couple of hours later so we all enjoyed a fresh fish dinner. The anchorage itself was a tad rolly but nothing that we couldn't handle.
Our next leg is also fairly short but it looks like another nice day to do it in.
