GYPSEY COMES TO PLAY!

 


G'day All,

                 Well itz 2 weex later and after a brilliant run down the final stretch Galleycat has made it back to Ocean Reef Boat Harbour in Perth.

Jim returned to the yot with hiz best friend Gypsey, it waz thyme for Sue and Gypsey to get reacquainted.

I've spent the last week on a mooring in Lancelin waiting for the swells and wind to subside and we were blessed with flat calm conditions and no wind to speak of. This allowed us to do the last 55 mile run in 7 hours. No motor or filter issues for the trip which has slowly rebuilt my confidence with the motors.

Well itz taken a couple more weex but Galleycat has finally made it back to Perth. After a week tied to the jetty in Ocean Reef Boat Harbour waiting for the windz to drop. Plenty of crabs here.

I have now completed the last 20 nm and find myself in Mangels Bay Rockingham. This iz 2B my summer haunt.

Monster Squid, 5 minutes after we arrived in Lancelin Jim had a squid jig in the water 20 minutes later the alarm rang and we had this monster squid for lunch. diamond cut and fried with chilli and garlic enuf for both of us.
