Port Stevens was a great stop over with plenty of whale and dolphin action. Its a sheltered port as large as Sydney harbour with plenty of anchorage stop overs. It was time to say good buy to other boaties we met who were following us down from the gold Coast. We were watching the weather charts an it was time to get on with the next leg of the trip to Sydney Harbour. We left at 7:30am and found us punching through a 25knot head wind with 2 meter waves. The Riviera handled the conditions with no problem what so ever. Our cruising speed droped down to 15knots from 22 knots.
We arrived in Sydney Harbour at 1:00pm entering the Harbour which was qute a site. Growing up in Sydney and being a boatie from the age of 13 years it was like a home comming. The conditions in the harbour have maximum of .5 meter swell a piece of cake for a Riviera after the conditions we just went through. We headed to Rose Bay to catch up for drinks and head off to our mooring spot at Ruchcutters Bay Marina next to the Royal Sydney Yacht Club.
The weather is looking bad for the next couple of days. Day 4 & 5 will be lay days in Sydney.
Day 6 Skeet Shooting Morning! Stay tune for the next Blog! Then off to Port Hacking.
