Wind 15 – 20                                                             3.5 nautical miles

Time to head north again, so the morning was filled with the usual  last minute chores – filling the water tanks, washing the back deck, riding to the shops for any last minute supplies, packing the bikes up etc.

We cast off our lines at 11:30 and sailed north on the jib in light breezes to anchor in Woodwark Bay.

We were both fairly tired from last night so after anchoring at the head of the bay on 2 metres of water we sat down to lunch, a read and a sleep. John had watched the cricket till late last night after we got home and I made a Tim Tam cheesecake for tonight’s dinner.

Woodwark Bay is a large  bay with a 4000 acre privately owned property with an exclusive resort at the head of it. According to the write up , it offers exquisitely appointed accommodation for up to 14 guests providing a private lake for water skiing and fishing  , waterfalls and picnic huts surrounded by 50,000 acres of National Park. Included in your $15,500 per night between April and December then $19,000 per night from Dec to Jan are all meals catered by a celebrity chef, barramundi fishing, quad bike tour, rainforest walk and canoeing. Minimum stay 4 nights.

The resort caters for celebrities who want to get away from the paparazzi, amongst their guests they have had are Tom and Nicole cruise and the King of Morocco.

I don’t think Jenny and John Mulligan will make the guest list.

And of course we are not allowed on shore anywhere in the bay above the high tide mark.

We dinghied over to Moor R & R and enjoyed the scenery for free and a very delicious Roast lamb with all the trimmings and the cheesecake.

Needless to say we were home early and retired to bed at 8:45 especially as there was no TV reception for John to watch the Aussies play badly again.
