Sheltering from Storms in Mackay - Sailing Australia Ep.52
August 02, 2019 by Sailing Yacht Florence | Language: EN Play Time: 00:17:30 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
Forced to take shelter from storms in Mackay we take the opportunity to explore inland to Finch Hatton Gorge and hunt for duck billed platypus at Broken River. When paying for a marina berth we try to make the most of the facilities by doing all the jobs that require fresh water. With the bad weather continuing we decide to head back out anyway.
We are a British couple who set off from England in 2016 to fulfill our dream of sailing around the world on our 37ft sail boat, Florence. Along the way we share the live aboard lifestyle with the highs and lows of travelling around the world by boat.
