You might consider sleeping on the boat with a tarp over (the boom) to make a tent. Depending on how far you moor from the bank you won't be so bothered by the bugs and stuff. Lovely little boat too.
+psocretes Yes I did that once and it worked quite well. It’s a bit compromised because of the little inboard motor. I need to add a sleeping platform and it’s extra stuff to carry. I tried to cruise at the time of year when there are fewer bugs.
No crocs up there ? The general information of the area is really good as you go along would like to see how you set up your camp to get ideas of camping with a dingy what you take etc
They have seen crocs there from time to time and haven’t heard of any recent reports. When you get way up North they have some issues with stingers in the summer. I once set my tent up in the boat And it was a bit of a laugh and probably one of the most uncomfortable nights I have ever spent. LOL
Good on ya ,enjoy your sailing
Bevan Tweedie thanks Bevan
another great video!
how strong were the winds when you were sailing under jib alone?
15 - 20 knots. It required a fair bit of concentration belting downwind at that pace.

GonnieKarl Aigner thank you. I’m sure you are enjoying the arrival of spring and the opportunity it brings to get on the water. Christopher

Great video, what length is the boat?

I should really redo this one. I'm getting more comfortable with voice-overs now.
