We arrived in Geraldton in time for the running of the Melbourne Cup. If I had known there was a French trained horse with a French jockey I may have had a flutter especially when after the cup presentation the journos called it a French Kiss when the owner kissed the cup.
Our sail down the coast from Kalbarri was quick due to the strong E/NE wind. saw whales in Champion Bay just out from the marina.
The yacht will now stay in Geraldton until the next lot of favourable weather to get down the last 200nm.
