Today was the last day on the boat

One Foot island

One Foot island

We went to 1ft island, named so because during high tide you can only fit one foot on it.

It was really fun to be at the helm. Zac handed the wheel to me and then went into the boat. A few moments later he peered up, seemed content and then jumped back down to do something. One more time he peeked up before eventually showing up in a new shirt and ready to take over again! Felt good to be the captain for a while😎

And so the sailing was over... Time to hoist the sails.

Final goodbye

I've never seen these anti bird spikes on a sailboat before!

It was now time to disembark this boat, as always on sailing boats I feel like it is its own little world, that is why it is such an effective escape vessel, a floating world, a vacation within the vacation.

When we came back to shore we gave Zac a tip to share with the crew. These days had really been magical and they had all really put in an effort and done that extra to make it truly special.

Zac got moved by our gesture, and it seemed like they had also had a really good time!

Zac asked me for my Instagram which I remember being surprised about. We had chatted a little but still I felt like he was this cool untouchable skipper guy. It was a bit humbling

Cue an epic guitar riff

Have I told you about "fun drinks"?

Leon has this thing about only liking sparkling drinks. So each day he has at least one fun drink. This is my fun drink today: some Bundaberg Ginger beer!

After party time

After party time

The Defa crew arranged an afterparty at Beaches Bar & Grill. But they said they probably wouldn't show up, they usually don't.

But look, Senna and Zac showed up!!

After a while me and Emily picked a table outside, and after some more whiles, we left. We went on a bit of a walk through the neighbourhood to get back to her place.

This was the first time I've slept in a proper bed for almost two weeks.

Also, I can really recommend Fred again's Arun's rooftop set!
