In Port Davey

Weather still inclement outside,did a tour of the Bathurst channel after checking out Brambles,the waterfall,Wombat ,noticed the stainless mooring points and red slings have spread to there,a good move to save the trees.Over to Schooner for a look and up to Parker Bay to visit the grave,it is sobering to stand in the quiet shelter of the little corpse of trees imagine the pickle the young man got himself into.
Checked out Casilda Cove,more moorings there and four vessels tied up stern to,reorganising themselves for the predicted blow.
Over to Frogs Hollow for lunch a couple of other boats there.
After lunch went up into Joe Page Bay to have a look at a bay Morrie Wolf told me about for laying out a blow in.
It pays to have a few options these days as there are more than 40 boats in Port Davey tonight and a bad forecast for tomorrow,strong winds,rain and hail,cold temperatures.
We found the Cove he described,it is very similar to Ed’s cove under Mount Rugby.The water is deeper and the Mount Misery I think it is called not so high.There is a stand of trees protecting the SW and. High hill on the NW side.
We left there and went around to check out Kings and Clayton’s,plenty of boats there so motored over to Ed’s Cove for the night.
Had a nice roast for dinner,after 17 years I read the instruction booklet for the oven,amazing the difference when you do it right!
Settled in for a peacfull night ,not so for a few others we thought.
