Day 129 March 18th 2007, Shore leave cancelled - Hamilton Island to Whitsunday Island
I was woken early by the dawn chorus today, a flock of screeching cockatoos at 4AM, not good after a night out. After the crews behaviour last night I thought it best to leave Hamilton Island as soon as possible and we headed North to Sawmill Bay on Whitsunday Island. Being at Anchor for the night would keep the crew out of trouble. The only problem was the wind, gusting up to 25 Knots I didn't get a lot of sleep, waking every few hours to check the anchor hadn't slipped.
