Episode 20 - Cid Harbour to Scawfell Is - Yeppoon to Townsville in our 2400 Kevlacat Weekender

Hi all! In this episode we leave the calm anchorage of Cid Harbour and make a dash for the comfort of Hamilton Marina for a night to escape the big southerly blow that's come in. We then leave and have a night back at one of our favorite spots, Thomas then make a dash for Scawfell as we now have a four day window to make it home

1:57 that bird might of been the same one that landed on my shoulder at Hamilton island I was eating in that place as well and that landed in my shoulder then a cockatoo took a huge bite out of my mum’s pie this was when we were up at Whitsundays

Cheers guys, good to see Jillza landing a fish again, tightlines.

[@makeithappen2021]

Even better when she has to release them 😉😎

[@stevew4260]

Who cares about that part lol, we always bleed our fish straight up, and if we are catching undersize consistently we just move, saves killing smaller fishes, enjoy your episode.

[@makeithappen2021]

@@stevew4260 yeah so do we mate, that section of undersize trout was only one drift over a large shoal just flicking vibes.. we weren't stressed about catching too much, just if we arsed a nice one. it was only 10-15m of water so all good 🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@Corey-pd3mi]

I think you just kept hooking the same fish 😂

[@makeithappen2021]

Haha sure of it... Be a prime place to fish in a year or so!

awesome vid once again Jill n Mick. When you say it was a wake up call, was it scary or just uncomfortable? Trying to get a feel for what unfavourable tide + 30 knott winds would be like. What if you had a 2 year old on board?

[@makeithappen2021]

I guess I was a little blase about just how ordinary that section of sea could get given those conditions. I mean we weren't in danger, but if I had to do it again I'd wait for the tide change or wind to drop. Very short, walled up but once we committed we were committed. As soo as we were through the channel area as such it was fine. Sorry mate, I'll call soon 🤙🏼

What’s your fuel burn rate with those twins.

[@makeithappen2021]

Hey mate, they average 1km / L combined at cruise..
