Start Loc: Black Island (20o 05.03'S, 148o 53.39'E)
Narrative: We went ashore and had a swim on Black Island. It didn't take long to explore as it is not exactly large. The kids ran around and played and swam, while Heather and I sat on the beach and read.
We dropped the mooring at 11:05am and motored south. There was no wind to speak of. We towed a couple of lures north and south in the passage between Black and Hook Islands, but nothing bit. We decided to delay our move down to Nara Inlet by a day given that Stonehaven was now virtually bare of boats, so we took up a mooring there at 12:05pm. There were several vacant mooring buoys while we swam, snorkelled and water skied during the afternoon. It was not until after 4:00pm that the buoys all started to be taken up again and it ended up being quite crowded again.
We will use the high tide tomorrow morning to go ashore to the beach. We will then head to Nara Inlet on the southern side of Hook Island.
