We've left!!!

Tears on the marina as we left at 0728! this morning!! A send off from the Jonathan, Nicholas, Grandad, Grandma, and Kal. I hope we will be returning,, or do they know something I don't? 

We have recruited Andrew to share the dramas of the first leg to Sydney, poor Andrew!

We were keen to get the favourable w/nw wind before it swung round to the south at 30 knots. And we did, 15-20 knots down the bay and sailed through the West Channel and arrived at the Queenscliff Marina at 1130. The marina is very modern, nearly empty. 

No doubt we will spend the afternoon de stressing and repacking. Many items were thrown in at the at the last moment: there goes the plan for an ordered ship.

I must go and do the washing up! Did I hear your jaws drop!!
