30 Knots & Big Seas FORCED US BACK Our Epic Sail to Lizard Island Sailing Queensland Coast Australia

Welcome back aboard Moor R & R for this week's Adventure! Episode 49 We’re leaving Cooktown and setting our sights on beautiful Lizard Island, but the weather has other plans for us. As we poke our nose out of Cooktown, the wind quickly starts building — 30 knots and climbing — and with the seas getting bigger, we have a decision to make. Our gut tells us it’s not worth pushing on, so we turn around and head back to Cooktown to wait for better weather. But the forecast isn’t looking great, and it could be some time before the winds settle enough for us to try again. Eventually, the weather starts to ease, and we decide to make another attempt at heading north towards Lizard Island. And this time… everything starts to come together. The wind is perfect, the seas settle down, and the boat is sailing beautifully. But, of course, it wouldn’t be one of our adventures without a little drama! 😅 When one of our reefing lines gets caught around the boom, we have another problem to deal with. But it doesn’t stop us, and we continue on towards Lizard Island. What follows turns into one of the best sails we’ve had yet! So come along with us as we leave Cooktown behind, battle the weather, and finally make our way north towards the incredible Lizard Island.
