Spent day on the boring stuff: doing the washing etc , loading water and emptying the rubbish. Had time to look at a Huon Pine timber mill and see a great craft shop.

Our trip up the coast was very pleasant, sunny calm sea and some great scenery. Hells Gate had 3 knots against us which made the entry to Macquarie Harbour interesting.

Once in Strahan, it is a very nice little town. Mostly tourist-based, then it’s very sleepy for the rest of the day while they’re out on boat tours. Met some very nice fishermen who gave us an old  cray pot,

and let us tie up outside them. We plan to stay here for a day or so looking around and then head up the Gordon River with Cathy and Ian aboard and see what that has to offer.

Currently raining here but believe Sydney is having some very unpleasant weather. Ha Ha.
