Ep 206 | Short Sail to Funnel Bay and Start of Airlie Beach Race Week, Sailing Nutshell, Australia

We have been hanging out to take Nutshell out for a sail but the weather has not been kind enough. I wouldn’t say that we are fair weather sailors but huge storms hit the coast and we had to delay heading off. After much fiddling Magnus finally manages to get the impeller out of the Volvo engine using an ingenious technique. We take Nutshell out and gently float over to Funnel Bay which is a mere two nautical miles around the headland. It’s wonderful to be out again. We did plan on cleaning her bottom but murky waters put us off! As we return to Airlie Beach we are fortunate enough to be there at exactly the right time, the start of Airlie Beach Race week. There isn’t much wind, but the sight of the yachts heading out of Pioneer Bay is majestic. Thanks for watching. We’ll see you all next time. Until next time… Wendy and Magnus ______ Where are we now: http://sailingnutshell.com/where-are-we/ If you’d like to keep us moving and support us you can become a Patron for as little as $1 per month. https://www.patreon.com/lifeinanutshell Be up to date with what we’re up to and where we are.
