This afternoon we motored back to Winda Woppa as there are moderate NE winds forecast for tonight, Winda Woppa being a better anchorage for N'ly winds than Shoal Bay.

My original plan was to use those NE winds to continue south; however, a friend who lives in Port Stephens (sometimes) will be back here on Sunday so I thought it would be rude not to hang around for a couple of days to say hello, especially as conditions for heading south are quite satisfactory for much of next week. So the plan is now to move back to Nelson Bay tomorrow if there is a mooring available, otherwise we will most likely go to Shoal Bay, then, on Monday or Tuesday, we will continue to Sydney.

All is well.
