interesting anchorage, I always went past it because of the approach and depth of water , the advantage of your drop keel , its interesting following you around Simon you go into a lot of places I couldn't
Turkey beach equals sandfly city...... used to be good fishing and crabbing until they started dredging at Curtis Island. Lovely scenic protected anchorage though.
Is that Pancake Creek? Must be, if youre going to walk up to the lighthouse? Nice area. Stuart Buchanan wrote a couple of books about the lighthouses history, his time there as a Lighthouse Keeper and the process they went through to get the lease and restoration work done on the site for the tours that now run out of 1770. Lovely spot, thanks to him, his his wife and a raft of other people.
It’s Tony again I just wanted to know did you buy your chain for your boat near the Bulimba Morningside area because I did and mine is all rusty too except for the chain but I kept in the chain locker not happy at all and that was supposed to be made in Australia and in Australia I’m going to have to get some chain from somewhere Take the chain off the boat and then go get it read it by myself
