Quiet day, as the wind and rain pelt down. We started the day stripping paint off the last remaining mouldy deck head on the starboard side. Then a car trip to Richmond (in Debbie & Haydn’s van). Very pretty town which has the oldest bridge in Australia, built by convict labor in 1823, complete prison which could be used now and many end-of-the-food-chain boutique shops.

Looks like more wind for tomorrow so wait and see.

Last night we met a nice guy on a Fleming 50 that he has just bought and will have in the boat show, just going  for a drink with him, hope it doesn’t go as long as last night, very slow this morning.
