Great Kepple Island



Arrived at Great Kepple after a very comfortable sail and ony 5 hours. We were quite disturbed to hear a distress signal over the radio and then find out that a boat had overturned and a small child drowned. So sad, got to remember this is serious stuff.
Next day was overcast and we went for a long bushwalk, a lot of it uphill. Rugged and untouched, this is the quiet side of Great Kepple. Didn't go near the resorts.
Rained heavily overnight and took off for Kepple Bay Marina to explore Yepoon and Rockhampton.
Have finished the scarf. See the photo of Capt M. modelling it, and it has turned nearly cold enough to wear it. Must find more wool at this stop.
