Monday 28th September 2015
The focus today is about getting ready to depart tomorrow. It involves refuelling, getting gas bottles filled and shopping for fresh food.
The refuelling is done early in the morning, helping Steve take Wilparina to the fuel wharf early whilst the tide is right, and filling a couple of Jerry Cans of my own on the trip to save a trip back with the trolley.
The gas bottle is filled and we have the courtesy car from the marina booked from 2.45 pm till 4.45 pm which should be enough time for us to drive into Yeppoon and do our grocery shopping.
Steve and Kim have some friends in Yeppoon that they are keen to catch up with. Their friends are keen to show them their home they have built in Yeppoon, and to have dinner with them. Whilst we are invited to join in, logistically it was difficult and we encouraged them to do their thing and we would do ours.
We were more than happy to have an easy meal close to the marina, and caught up with Steve and Kim later in the evening to finalise tomorrows plans.
The forecast is very benign, so we plan to sail to North West Island, out in the reef, and then to Lady Musgrave.
We may be off the air for a day or two, but should be in Bundaberg on Thursday
