The wind has been low for a couple of days so the sea state should have calmed down as well. Time to leave Mackay.
Up early for a good run to Curlew. Wind started off south westerly giving us a good lift on the jib. After a couple of hours it went too far forward for sailing so we motored on one engine for the rest of the way. Nice day out.

Mooring field off Hays Point. |
Curlew had a fierce current around its islets and sandbanks. The usual entrance to the anchorage was way too squirrelly for my liking so we went to the eastern end of the northern reef and turned in that way. Still got 2m over the bank on a falling tide. Dodgy!
