We bought a canyoning harness before leaving Australia and it was still adjusted for Carolyn’s small size, so she was the one to try it first. The fourth mast step was too stiff to be opened so that’s as high as she climbed. We’ll need to carry some kind of persuader to open them, until they free up a bit. After that first climbing effort we had a second go in the fading light, with the two halyards again but also the winch this time. Much easier, for her! :-)

I love the way that Dolphins turn their heads to look at you when you sit over the pulpit....Wonderful creatures - they get me every time.

This is what it looks and feels like to get hammered by a storm on a boat. While moored at Camden Haven we got hit by a late afternoon supercell thunderstorm. A beautiful sight as it arrived - the night sky lit up like a lightning bolt xmas tree. Not so beautiful when it hit, 80-90 km/h winds which tossed the boat from side to side and strained the mooring lines... ahhhhh sailing.
