We filled up with fuel before leaving Roslyn Bay. We both love it here and would even consider moving here, it is a delightful spot.

We had intended to anchor over night at the bay behind Cape Capricorn, but even though we saw other vessels anchored there, they were all shallow drafted and it was just too shallow for us, we would have been aground at low tide. A decision was made to continue south and we decided to anchor opposite Conner’s Bluff just north of the entrance into Gladstone. I anchored here on the way north and it isn’t too bad, but Chez says it is too rolly and you can rock and roll sitting at the dinette table.

We saw two large green turtles mating, they were quite oblivious to us and we were able to circle back and take some pornographic photos!
Also a few humpbacks breaching.
