Day 119: Cape Upstart
Left the pond at Townsville at 6am for a good fast run to Cape Upstart. Motor sailed most of the way and made close to 7 knots on average, getting into Shark Bay around 4.30 pm. Had a prior warning about a sunk boat in the bay causing a hazard but, by the time we got there, someone had put a marker on it so it was easy to avoid. Nice surprise, Notorious was already anchored there.
Anchored in 4m clear of the reef and, for a while, had a nasty side-swell that threw a few things around the cabin. The wind eventually swung us round stern-to and things quietened down for the night.
