[status] Amazingly placid passage from our short Gabo Island stopover. Downwind in 8-12 knots meant the boat was calmer than at anchor for the most part. Beautiful quiet sailing and great sunsets in mostly cloudless skies. Jumped to 22-30 knots from the NE as it got dark approaching the Prom last night, but snuck our way in and had the anchor down by 10pm. Such a beautiful part of the world.

The cabin of a small yacht is truly a wonderful thing; not only will it shelter you from a tempest, but from the other troubles in life, it is a safe retreat.
