Saturday Louisa to Dover

Up at seven again and had a light breakfast.The last fishing boat just leaving,had his gear around Louisa Island.

Beautiful morning in Louisa ,DeWitt Island out further.
 

We motored across the bay to check out the anchorage behind the Island,would have been good in there also last night.

Seeing it was almost flat calm decided to go out to the Maatsyker group of islands for a look.

Ended up circumnavigating them ,we could see the Mewstone clearly out further.

Set a course back in to the Isle de Golfe for morning tea,quite calm in the Lee of the now light Easterly breeze,no good for the "blow boats".It did not matter as they were mostly in Recherche or Southport.

The structures on the Maat.

A closer look.
 

View out to Sea.

 

Set off again for Ron's fishing spot off the Actaeon Island.

Along past Prion Bay ,South Cape and South East Cape and Whale Head.Arrived at lunch time but could not get the fishermen to knock off so Bruce and I had ours without them.Mucked around for most of the afternoon fishing before I said it was time to get going to Dover for the At Home in the club.

Back in phone range,all crew checked in ,Ralph had 12 messages ,mainly birthday wishes.

Arrived at about 5.30 and got spruced up to go ashore.

The evening was a beauty the locals had excelled themselves,steak or Atlantic Salmon with excellent salads to go with it.

After dinner the local musos started up,they were excellent,very talented people,just swapped positions whenever they saw an empty space,it did not seem to matter which instrument they picked up.There were more people than instruments,they were going well after midnight,the younger ones dancing.

We returned to the boat for coffee and bed.
