Catherine and I always enjoy your videos. Enjoy your beers in those beautiful sunsets.

Thanks Simon. Good video!

[@jimmcdonald9244]

Jolly good show Simon! You are managing despite our frigid winter. I'd have given anything to join you on deck for that sundowner. Looked like a Great Northern. Enjoy old mate.

Hi Jim I have made it to the Keppels thawing out now !

[@philipgibbons9048]

Great to have you back Simon

[@alansmith2203]

Ah Simon, what a lovely sunset at the end of the video. Finally got to see your diesel engine...smile. As we age we reminisce. When you were in one of your anchorages you were talking about the kids and showering at one of spots. You have a long sailing history in the area. You have no idea...or perhaps you do....how you feed us with stories and pictures while we are stuck at work. God bless and keep 'em coming.

[@markkmckenzie]

Great video Simon. I’m really loving your videos. As a fellow resident of Queensland I have to compliment you on the way you show this area off to the world. Safe sailing!

[@davidclarke9794]

Great stuff Simon. I was in rainbow bay / double island at the same time as you. I was on Just Us the 33ft jarken monohull 👍 Was definitely a nice week of weather we had in there 👌 All the best with your travels

David I am at the northern beach at Great Keppel

[@AnatolyKern]

Lovely DI, glad it is still in perfect shape. Glad you didn't gave up on the video's, really good motivation to push on with plans for next year.

Gday Simon we’re feeling your pain with the weather. We’re in Urangan waiting for some pleasant weather to head north. Obviously we’re much more sooky than you. Can’t believe how cold it’s been. We’ll keep watching your videos until you look warm, then we’ll head off 😎

[@simoncarteroz]

Peter It is quite pleasent at Great Keppel Islands.

[@kevingreen_boating]

Thanks for another informative video Simon! Hopefully we will share the same anchorage somtime.

[@simoncarteroz]

Kevin I am at the Northern Beach on great Keppel

[@kevingreen_boating]

@@simoncarteroz picturesque i bet! Fair winds going north!

[@tommycheshire5508]

I seem to remember you climbing those cliffs.

[@patappleton6285]

Hey Simon I think it's about time you cooked something for us.

[@CaptnTom]

Hear! hear!

[@Jac_light]

It has been bitterly cold... we just made it to Gladstone and it is finally starting to warm up enough for singlet and shorts weather. Hope to see you at anchor sometime and shout you a beer. We are aboard SV Nomad, our next stop is the Keppels.

[@simoncarteroz]

JJ , I am on the north beach at the Keppels

[@Jac_light]

@@simoncarteroz so are we! I thought that may have been you on the Noelex 30

[@chappy6817]

The toey finally gave up the ghost eh? How are you liking the new Suzuki? I've got the same on my boat. :edit: just watched the end of the video where you are talking about getting another outboard? Issues with the new suzuki?

[@dalemclaughlin6213]

Hello Simon, are you still on the Noelex 30?? Dale from Tasmania

[@gregwheat5117]

Simon how do I shout you a beer

[@petercooke2115]

Thanks Simon,as a Victorian l always find it funny when Queenslanders bleat about the cold,boat looks great,have you done anything different with your battery setup for this trip?

[@dominiklipski3392]

I moved up to Brissy 5 years ago from SE Melb and I must say this winter has been a shocker. It's given me serious Vic vibes!

[@swanny66041]

Simon, have you changed the name of your vessel, or changed your vessel’s name? Still jealous, as I only have a Sabre 22 in Brisbane.
