Arrived at Lady Musgrave Island

Well we set out from the Burnett River anchorage at midnight and made good time in the building wind. We had two reefs in the main and a full head sail poled out taking full advantage of the Southerley (at anchor, now gusting up to 23 knots).
The journey across here in the still mostly full moon over the silver ocean was uneventful with Dan on watch first then me from 3am to 6am. 

This anchorage is smooth but windy. A little too windy for a swim at the moment as the boat yaws around a bit too much. It is nice to be here and we are getting another forecast to decide if we should head away this evening or stay until tomorrow as planned.
We have a spot tracker onboard the link is on Dan's facebook page.
