E68 - A Crocodile Under Our Tender At Ruby Falls, Red Cone Creek

We leave Deception Bay and head past Montgomery Reef riding the strong tide into Raft Point where we find a humpback whale playing in the bay. We launch the drone and get some fantastic footage of it lazily rolling around before breaching with a huge splash. Moving with the following morning and riding the tide into Red Cone Creek we explore the very beautiful Ruby Falls, get a visit from Western Australian Fisheries Officers before heading up Little Ruby Falls (also known as Sapphire Falls) Working our way up the very narrow and muddy river seeing several crocodiles along the way, we pass through a very tight section around submerged rocks and inadvertently block a crocodile trying to get out resulting in it squeezing past just under the rear of our tender. Finally getting to the top of the river we explore the Little Ruby Falls (Sapphire Falls).

We’re Chris and Jo and we have been living on our Seawind 1260 since January 2019. In our first year we bring our yacht down the east coast of Australia and sail it out to New Caledonia. After cruising further north up the east coast of Australia in 2020, we decide to circumnavigate Australia during 2021 and 2022. We had previously owned fishing and water skiing boats, but after a couple years crewing in South Australia we decided to jump right in and make a sea change. We are just an ordinary Aussies couple exploring what this great world has to offer and hope that we can inspire others just as we were by watching other YouTube channels to follow our dreams. #seawind1260 #kimberleys #circumnavigationaustralia #seawindcats #rubyfalls #redconecreek #crocodiles #drone #humpbackwhale
