FROM: Townsville to Mackay
DATE: 5 August 2023
POSITION: South Molle Is
REPORT: Red Watch
We got up extra early to start the day from Cape Gloucester and touched land for the first time in days. We anchored and got to go to shore to swim and put our toes in the sand. We climbed the rocks, met some campers and Libby eventually convinced some of us to do handstands in the water. Then we set sail for Airlie.
Today was a much nicer day on the seas, it wasn’t as rough, and we briefly saw whales again. Then we made it to Airlie at 1430 to refuel and top up our water tank. Trent, Wazza and Shanika did a mega rubbish run in the tender but unfortunately, we did not get ice cream at Airlie beach, although we were promised it! Finally we parked up in South Molle Island for the night.
