Visiting Three Bays in One Day on a Small Sailboat in Australia's New South Wales Cowan Creek
Episode 369 : Season 12 : Sailing Australia
Hello Friends,
On this episode we awake in the fog at Twilight Inlet surrounded by birdsong, once the morning sun cleared the way we headed out to explore more of Cowan Creek. After getting fuel and water at Cottage Point, we enjoyed a slow sail amidst the chaos of the weekend boat (and plane) traffic and spend the day bay hoping to see as much as we could.
