Ep 265 | Shallow Water, Rocks and Narrow Passages, Wessel Islands, Sailing Nutshell, Australia
May 06, 2022 by Life in a Nutshell | Language: EN Play Time: 00:22:21 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
It’s finally time to leave Guruliya Bay in the Wessel Islands and head east to the ‘other’ half of the Wessels, or so some people say.
We take refuge in Refuge Bay. It’s pretty ordinary and we only spend one night there.
We make our way to Galiwinku. We are running very low on water and have just about run out of fresh food. We are turned away at Galiwinku and so continue our journey to Milingimbi.
Unfortunately, we are unable to get water at Milingimbi either, so we have to make a decision on what to do next. With a broken water maker, do we make a bolt for Darwin, or try and find somewhere else to get water?
Thanks for watching.
Until next time.
Wendy and Magnus
