Wednesday 8th September
 
We left the marina at Airlie Beach just after mid-day on Wednesday complete with a new bracket (to lift the outboard engine) that had been made overnight, very accommodating people here in the marina. We are now collecting our new dinghy from Cairns further up the coast the middle of next week, so can now take our time getting there.
 
     
 
Leaving Airlie Beach .... Bona Bay Gloucester Island
 
We sailed 20 miles and anchored for the night at Bona Bay, Gloucester Island. It was late afternoon when we arrived and decided not to go ashore as there are 'Death Adders' on the island and you are advised to carry a torch so you can see what's around you. No thank you.
