Ep 287 | Abandoned Mission, Exploring Islands and Anchorages, Kimberley, Sailing Nutshell
October 10, 2022 by Life in a Nutshell | Language: EN Play Time: 00:20:10 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
We make our way to Governor Island West and are immediately threatened by an impending storm! Magnus puts out the crab pots.
We then head south to Mission Bay to check out the abandoned Pago Mission and then it’s on to Honeymoon Bay which has a campground but everything is closed due to COVID.
Then it’s a sail north to Sir Graham Moore Island where we only stay for one night due to the nasty weather and a rolly anchorage.
After a wild sail avoiding Middle Rock, with Nutshell hurling along at 11 knots, we end up in the protected Maia Cove in Vansittart Bay.
We take a stroll on a lovely deserted beach and Peanut takes us into the mangroves.
Thanks for watching.
Until next time.
Wendy and Magnus
