The
anchorage at Kingfisher resort is fine in anything but a northerly
wind and it was anything but comfortable as a northern wind set in
through the night so this morning we (with Chilli Heat and Circe)
moved to a sheltered bay at the mouth of the Mary River on the
mainland. There was nothing to get off the boat for in the daytime
but we were invited to dinner on Circe and enjoyed a divine lamb
dinner.
We'd
finished dinner and were in the cockpit watching a thunderstorm
inland when the rain began and then a sudden, brute gust of wind laid
the boat so much on her side glasses flew off the table and we were
pinned on the starboard side. It was very dramatic. When we
returned to Jackster we found the kettle on the other side of the
salon and books on the floor so we'd been blasted by the same gust.
