We left at 0800 in a 10-15 kn south easterly and moderate swell. Spinnaker up again until the breeze increased over 20 knots. After lunch it died below 10 knots and we motor sailed to try to reduce the slatting of the main. Eventually the spinnaker went up again and we anchored off Cape Capricorn at 1520.We climbed up to the lighthouse on Sunday morning and watched the Keppel race yachts sail by. We motored into Yellow Patch on Sunday afternoon just before high tide using our coordinates from last year which had not changed much.
We are staying here until Tuesday when the marina at Rosslyn Bay has space after the race yachts move on up the coast for Hamilton Island Race Week.
