The day was breezy, up to 15 knots, with a low following sea so fairly comfortable all the way up in a 6 hour run. Wind behind so the headsail was out all the way - not game to fly the spinnaker in this wind.

Passed Bowen and then the Abbot Point coal terminal - a big source of pollution up here. Skirted the coal ships mooring field and tucked in behind the Cape near the beach.

Got a big bite using a spoon. Certainly bigger than a 5kg fish. The line snapped so I'm going to have to get that braided line I've promised myself. Total pelagics landed this trip = 0!

As soon as we arrive the wind started to build. Now getting 24 knot gusts and the ground tackle is having no trouble at all. Not too rocky, just windy.
