Living on a coral island until the wind has other plans for us. Calm one minute, blowing 30 knots with no protection the next…

We wake again at Lady Musgrave Island and jump straight into the water for a snorkel. It’s windy out in the lagoon so we escape it by going underwater and exploring the island. Soph gets stung by something weird. We have dinner on our good friend Myles boat with some new friends we met and we share a Mackerel we were given by some more fortunate fishermen. This place is so good we are left wondering how we will ever leave… Oh never mind that, the wind decides to blow gale overnight and we can’t wait to escape in the morning… We brave the wind and make a dash when the sun has risen and the tide has dropped, back out through the narrow coral entrance (now an exit) and into deep water. We throw in a reef and hoon out away from the island to head to safer waters and our next destination.

We weren’t expecting this to be the thing that takes us back to the boat yard.

And at last, we’re back to doing wh...
The Unusual Reason We Left Everything to go Sailing
