Up at 5am - this is going to have to stop! - for the run through the formidable Wide Bay Bar. The crossing was bouncy but not dangerous. Biggest problem was 3 stinkboats screaming through creating havoc. Kiddies.
Pulled straight into Pelican Bay and tried anchoring 4 times before we settled. The depth is all over the place and we had to find a spot not too close to others, especially as some of them were monos.
Spent the afternoon sewing the dinghy cover, and wiring in the engine hour counters. The main purpose of the latter is to keep track of engine usage so that I know when they need servicing. They should also help with maintaining a fairly even usage between the two engines.

| Engine counters get wired into their respective engine control panel. Just need to find something that has 12v when the engine is running. |

| The barbie is getting much more of a workout on this trip. Helped by being much more convenient to use than on Red. Also, there is no oven on this boat so we need to get a bit more creative. |
