Join in this episode as we rock and roll on our Whitby 42
Ketch from Goldsmith Island to Long Island in the heart of the Whitsunday Group
on Australia’s Great Barrier Reef. We anchor off the mothballed Happy Bay
Resort with excellent protection from the approaching strong south easterly
winds. Karen spent many fun filled days here as a child growing up on her
parents Game Fishing Charter boat in nearby Shute Harbour. She really enjoyed the memories rekindled
during our visit.

We also got amongst the rainforest on another great National Parks Trail and spent some time trying to rediscover Karen’s childhood pirate cave.

In Our Galley Karen invents a new fish dish so different it hasn’t even got a name yet but it’s so tasty it really deserves a great one.
