We set off for Lady Musgrave Island at 3:30pm today, aiming to get there by mid morning tomorrow. The forecast is for light (8-12 knots) south easterlies tonight, but so far we&#8217;ve been treated to 15-20 knots of of the North East. A boisterous ride, what with a choppy beam sea and all, but making excellent miles. Not sure why we should want to arrive at 3am, as we can&#8217;t go into the lagoon until it&#8217;s well and truly light (it helps to be able to see the coral &#8216;bommies&#8217;).
