Saturday 6 July Valentia Island

Today's trip was a short hop of 37 miles from North Goulburn to Valentia island buddy boating with Julianna II. Valentia wasn't as accommodating as N Goulburn with it's anchorage; the side sheltered from the wind was too shallow for comfort and had swell, the southern side with better depth and no swell didn't offer much wind protection but as it turned out the wind dropped completely and it was a very comfortable night.
Wendy and Stephan invited us aboard Julianna for pizza supper and a most enjoyable evening. We talked boat stories and planned our journey through the Bowen Straits tomorrow; another passage requiring timing for tides and currents.
