I installed the sheet bags we got in Townsville yesterday. These keep lines from underfoot, especially when sailing.

| New sheet bag. |
Went for a walk on the beach at a very low tide. A lot of stuff
became visible including an old mooring. Not sure I'd trust my boat to
that!
 |
| Remains of a mooring. |
Went off in search of a geocache at the western end of the bay. Lumpy
getting the dinghy on the beach though it's great scenery over there.
 |
| Rock climb. |
 |
| Horseshoe Bay from the western end. |
Met up with a dozen or so other yachties and bussed it into Arcadia.
There is a big pub there with a couple of food outlets - we prompted for
the Indonesian - and, most importantly, toad races. 8 toads are
auctioned off and put in the middle of a big white circle. First one to
the perimeter wins and the owner gets a payout. Good night out. Also saw
a couple of rock wallabies.
