In this video we cross some of the most dangerous waters in Queensland, the Wide Bay Bar, but not before waiting for the right weather conditions, consulting the Tin Can Bay Volunteer Coast Guard and taking all the sensible safety precautions. Then we sail across the bay to one of mother nature’s great playgrounds at Double Island Point where we are able to anchor in totally protected, crystal clear waters and have some fun.

Our trip across the Wide Bar began on glassed out waters in Gary's Anchorage at K'Gari (Fraser Island) |
Our Grandson Kristian is a bar veteran already |
Our Dreamtime climbing a high swell as we head out over Wide Bay Bar |
We never under estimate a bar crossing and came across a few large swells |
All crew in live jackets and harnessed on in the cockpit for the crossing. |
Once over the Wide Bay Bar we enjoyed a nice sail to Double Island Point. |
Double Island Point was a playground for all the crew |
Double Island Point is now a glorious spot to anchor behind a large sand bar |
It was nice to have a designated driver back to the boat after sundowners. |
