Day 2 - sailing south

We headed out from south mole island after our morning sceds with the hire base. We finally got our sails set after some drama with the poor rigging. I'm thinking that not many people actually sail her. A beautiful day with 15knts from the south and a falling tide from the south made it slow going. We saw some incredible whale action which certainly made the ours slip by unnoticed. As we got got into the arvo we realised that if we didn't start a motor we wouldn't make our anchorage by 4 pm. So we fired her up and ran down to shaw island. We found a lively cove to anchor in and settle in for the night. We had a run in the dingy and wet a line. No luck.
