Left 3:30am under light winds. Motor sailed the rest of the way as winds were less than 5 knots. We’re sailing with a NE swell. Swell around Tasman island was up to 3m and wind kept on moving around all over the place. We skirted Tasman island to the outside where there were quite strong currents. It took about 1.5hrs from Tasman island up to Ladies Bay where we dropped anchor in about 5.5m of water. Stayed here for four nights waiting out weather. During our stay we walked around to Port Arthur historic park and 10mins up through Stewart’s Bay lodge to the general store to pick up milk and bread. Stewart’s bay lodge has a good floating jetty you can tie your dinghy up to. There is also a sandy beach at Ladies Bay where we left our tender when off on walks.
