Hello!

Actually we are in our first east coast thunderstorm @ anchor here at peel island in southern Moreton Bay. It's not too bad....

In the second try we left Scarborough Marina today, the overheating problem is eliminated. A clean oil cooler and a new water strainer and all is well. Never before we had so much water coming out of the exhauster...! ;-)

Tomorrow down to Southport!

We are in Moreton Bay. Sailed around the north of Fraser Island down the coast. We tried to get into the Sandy Strait but to much wind on the nose and an overheating engine makes us so slow that the tide changed and we turned around. Every day we learn something new....

All well on Sabir, looking forward to Sydney!
