Tomorrow we leave Stanage at 5am in the morning coinciding our start with a strong incoming tide though Thirsty Sound (named by Captain Cook due to the complete lack of freshwater) and subsequent outgoing tide once we hit the large bay at the top of the Herbert river. We expect to spend the night either at Clairview campground or on Flock Pigeon island. The weather and tide forecast is looking very good and we expect to be in Mackay by Wednesday or Thursday where we have good friends who we will be spending two nights with to prepare for the Whitsundays. We think we will have coverage in Clairview but may be in a communications black spot again for up to three days. We will post when we can. DT
