Home Sweet Home

Thursday 7 October

Well eventually the north easterly breeze came in and and we set the spinnaker for the run into Raby Bay. Better late than never after much motoring most of the morning.




We were met by our usual welcoming party (my Mum and Dad) who also double as our farewelling party! I was spoiled as Mum brought a tasty Shepherd's Pie for our dinner so I didn't have to cook our first night home.

Warren gave the traditional 3 blasts on the foghorn to mark our arrival and before we knew it the trip was over. There was one embarassing post script when we received a call from the Water Police about 6pm. They were concerned for us as we hadn't logged off with VKQ447 (Moreton Bay Trailer Boat Club). As we hadn't logged on with them we hadn't felt the need to log off however our details had been passed on by VMR Redcliffe. The Water Police were very nice and glad there was no problem. We have used the VMR/Coastguard network up and down the coast and these volunteers do a fantastic job. Print this post
