Hi everyone
Just a quick note to let you know that we are safe and sound in the Tamar River. We had a gorgeous sail from Devonport today.
Arriving here is quite a milestone for us - Bass Voyager was "born" here and is registered on the Australian Ships Register with Launceston as her home port. She hasnt been back here in 15 years as far as we know. We're hoping to discover a bit about her history, and maybe even track down her builder.
Anyway, from here we will spend a week-ish meandering down the river to Launceston where we are planning to stop for a few weeks to do some work on the boat, and we also have a campervan booked so we can head inland.
Kitty is very happy that there will be no open ocean for a few weeks (she doesn't know about the campervan yet...shhhh!)
Love
Caitlin
Great to know you are now in Launceston. The weather has been great today! We had 8 stay here last night!!! Busy! We now have a couple who are here for a week - they are having a wonderful time! We love reading your blog! We had "Captain Silver" ashore - lovely couple and also a couple from Holland who have been living on their boat for 6 years! Have been to so many countries! You may see them on your travels - they are in tassie for 8 months. Love following your travels - have fun - Beverley and John Xx
