A Good Day's Sailing

Today was one of the best days sailing I've ever had, perfect winds, 18 - 20 knots behind all day with the occasional times up to 29 knots.
I had to spend an extra day in Iluka due to strong wind warning, but now I'm anchored in Byron Bay and will leave early tomorrow morning for Surfers Paradise, about a 9 hour trip.
Temperature has increased markedly and for the first time I'm not wearing a jumper.
Only disaster today was that I lost my favourite beanie overboard when I was anchoring here. Very upset, but it was a Marine Rescue beanie and I've asked Chez to order me a new one
