Sailing Latitude: EP13: Hotel California

You can check out but you can never leave! Ohhh Lord Howe Island was picture perfect for one week, absolutely pristine. But we had to pay for it, and pay for it we did. Our mooring is protected from everything but winds from the west - and that's what rolled in... for days on end. Join us as we duck and weave on the mooring like a punch drunk boxer, as Latitude strains her lines dangerously close to the reef. The poppet gets sea sick on the mooring, and I surpass myself with spectacular arts and crafts, really, my woodwork is sublime. . A shout out here to the good people of Lord Howe Island, hospitality and friendliness second to none. Especially local policeman/customs/maritime extraordinaire, Simon. . We hope you enjoy. Denham and Mari.
