Baby Steps.....

After fighting 30knot Nor-easterlies Athol Bay was a welcome relief so we decided to stay the night. We also had been told the wind was howling back our berth so thought that this was the best option.

At 0400 hrs the wind changed to a 30 knot Westerly.....leaving The Count totally exposed. We decided to move to Chowder Bay....as quick as we could!










What a paradise. We watch the Rapsody of the Seas arrive, then the sun rise and decided to head home knowing that our berth would be protected from the Westerly.








Forget paradise......we turned Bradleys Head and ran into what was now a 40 knot Westerly. The Count had waves break over the bow most of the way home. Needless to say....we were very happy when we arrived home.
