Day 1 and 2 Fremantle to Abroholos

Early start took Kwells doing well until evening when we hit some rough weather then I was sick all evening and the next day.  Others including John also sick.
Great crew on board nothing too much trouble exceptionally helpful.  One of the owners travelling with us owned the business for 11 years and never done this stretch.  Other passengers are very nice only 13 of us with half being from Eastern States.

Lunchtime arrived at West Wallabi Island in the Abroholos Island still feeling sick.  Crew were making me ginger tea and Buderim ginger bears which was very nice of them.  There was a boat moored near ours with couple families from Geraldton I'm guessing.  So tempted to ask them for a lift to Geraldton 😯  Even asked owner how could I get off!  Only option Dirk Hartog Islands which would mean small aircraft (as bad as boat for me) huge cost and offloaded at Denham which is quite isolated.

Anyway the skipper showed me weather pattern for onward trip and we would have south westerlies behind us to help push us along.  So no choice but to keep going!
