The VDL fleet met at Crockett Bay on Schouten Island , for a BBQ. Whilst others were preparing their feasts we climbed Bear Hill in sunshine. It was more of a rock scramble from halfway but the view north to Wineglass and south to Mariah. Exhausted, we returned and BBQ’d with great company. Maatsuyker, Pattern Maker and Bundaberg are Geelong yachts made by their owners and they love a party, even if it’s raining and your bare feet are warmer in the sea water than in the sand.
