Small Sailboat Cruising's video: Dinghy Cruising Day 2 Fraser Island Figtree to Garry s Anchorage

This is day 2 of cruising in a classic wooden dinghy up the Great Sandy Strait West of Fraser Island. A while back, I sailed Moonlight from Inskip Point to Urangan over four days, stopping at Figtree Creek, Garry's Anchorage and Deep Creek on the way up the West Coast of Fraser before crossing over to Urangan near Hervey Bay to complete the journey. Like the bearings in my boat, The effects of 20 years in the timber flooring business mean that my back, knees and, shoulders took a massive beating. After taking seaweed daily as “functional food” for a few months, I discovered I could do squats without pain. I was totally amazed because I used to have to pull myself up on a doorpost. It is helping me a lot, and now I can see a future sailing into my 70’s 80’s and beyond. If you try some, you will be helping me keep producing these videos, and doing your body a huge favor. Here is where I get it…. https://business.facebook.com/sailingmoonlight/shop/?rt=19 I created a video giving a quick overview of the entire trip, then a more detailed one on the first leg, from Bullock Point to Figtree Creek. This video covers the second leg of the journey, from Figtree to Garry's in 15-20 knots right on the tail.
