QLD26 21. Cape Capricorn to Great Keppel Island

Joanne Jones

Sailed with friends we met at Pancake Creek, Jon and Carol ( Wizard of the Wind) to Keppel. Had a great tail wind and made good time with the headsails. Anchored in about 3m of water off Long Beach on the bottom of Keppel. Spent a few days here before moving to the north side of the island when the SE’s blew in. Walked across the dunes a couple of times to have lunch at the cafe/restaurant at the resort. The food is pretty average all fried and served in paper boxes but the walk was nice…about two hour round trip!
