in our last episode we explored kpop
starred with it's stunning headlands and
quirky finds within hoisted the mane and
sailed on to keep Bowling Green okay so
I'm just mixing up a big batch of music
and what I do is a little bit of a cheap
thing I'll pretend to buy in bulk just
sort of basic Musa mixes with the rolled
oats and a few others sort of and I just
buy a cheaper version and lots of them
and then I mix my own goodies nuts nuts
and seeds and things in there to beef it
up and make it a nice healthy news lease
so I do that for quite a decent price
because I do buy in bulk and make up my
own sort of version of McGee's Bircher
really so this is a toasted musi and
this is just a plain old rolled oats and
then I add my almonds and walnuts and
pumpkin seeds and I normally add some
sunflower seeds and some LSA mix that
where we just provisions the LSA mix was
outrageously priced so I gave it this
which usually lasts for a week how good
is that yummy
nice healthy amusing Oh fantastic each
one of you know tasty isn't it walnuts
blend up like brains and they're good
for the brain
after breakfast we continue our way
north to Townsville

winged monster good morning and now that
we are passing cleveland lighthouse it's
just off to our port five i'll show you
that live in it and we've actually come
around on to the fort tank
I took a beam reach now and we are
hammering along at around about sort of
hi sevens and eights into about 16 knots
breeze deserts gorgeous just had lovely
lunch and Darren's downstairs made for
something so sick so we can rehydrate
and yeah we're hitting off the chancel
proper so
maybe another I'll just check to see how
far that is
yeah we've got about another ten miles
to go ten nautical miles to go until the
kids council probably so that'll be cool
how exciting
beautiful day honey
pretty good
[Music]
the cylon a woman
she's thankful vulgar bad 20 notes
Oh
but overall from a distance fear as the
cleveland lighthouse
and on the other side there's a big
beautiful mention up there the
lighthouse keeper must be loving his
place of work for her place of work
[Music]
crank our own vibe cranky wrong
[Music]
feels good to be cruising along at the
speed feels good
[Music]
just making a cup of tea there's another
vessel let's just come into sight
it's a catamaran and they've just pulled
out some hits or so as you might see
we've got a slight roll on and when I'm
making something on the stove I always
hang around nearby even though we've got
the pot holders on just to make sure
everything is going to stay in place

Oh receive Goleta there in the channel
there in the channel radio so we are
just coming in to Townsville proper and
looks like we're just about to cross the
channel it's pretty busy there's a lot
of shipping so we just have to make a
dash at the right time
that is the AOS alarm telling us that we
are within striking distance of another
vessel or maybe it's in striking
distance of us and we've got to keep
clear so pay attention meanwhile I am
just spraying around my clove oil mix
which I do once it remotes or so when I
remember and that is that clove oil and
a bit of vinegar sprayed around the
place is how I keep the mold down low
when we are in these tropical
environments that can get away on you so
I like to keep the place smelling fresh
and clean and to give it the old anti
mold and I'm just taking the opportunity
now while we are cruising
how many ships that I like will I get
out oh okay oh yeah
busy times busy time
with ships moving at a rate of knots and
restricted in their ability to maneuver
it pays to keep out of their way ok
we're just passing across the channel
having lit the big ship and the ferries
go the tucks go at least and and we'll
go and find an anchorage so over there
in the distance is magnetic island and
we're gonna go out there in a few days
and chill out a little be lovely go
exploring see what it has to offer
good morning we are in Townsville marina
breakwater marina and we arrived here
yesterday afternoon
we are in here because we have a locked
up prop our prop it's a feathering
properness feathered in a position that
unfortunately doesn't give us much
propulsion so we just managed to glide
in here just above idle and yeah so
we're going to hang out here until
Thursday and then we've managed to find
a haul out facility so we'll haul out
and pull the proper part and see what is
going on it is a gorgeous morning here
and it's quite peaceful and the world is
just waking up so
we're going to send a camera down and
have a look and see if we can figure out
what's going on with the prop whether
there's something I met tied around it
or an octopus and
you're hopefully it'll be a simple fix
so it's very quiet here in the marina
and people are just starting to wake up
and get on with their days it's going to
be a gorgeous sunny day again today
I'll just show you around
McDowell's just making some breakfast
and this is what emerita looks like
[Music]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
okay so I have got our gaap the camera
on a pogo stick
it's a gaffer tape and I stick this
whole lot together and see if I can dive
down and see what's going on with the
prop see if I can find it
you know waters not particularly yeah
they're pretty damn name is for sure
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]

pretty finished hopefully it'll be
nothing say this you can make dazzling
