Sail Freycinet

WINEGLASS Bay Hike ~ Freycinet Peninsula, Tasmania

Today I got up super early to explore Wineglass Bay Lookout and then hiked through to Hazards Beach, before arriving back at the carpark just as the tourist busses rocked up. I also stopped for lunch at the Bangor Wine & Oyster Shed, where I ate some delicious oysters in a beautiful outdoor setting.
See the tranquil Tasmanian beach from the lookout and enjoy the beautiful scenery from my hike. The Freycinet Peninsula was one of the real highlights of my trip over!

EP 5 SAILING IN TASMANIA - Fortescue Bay, Canoe Bay, Hen & Chicken, Mariah Island, Wineglass Bay

Impi is sailing around the world - this is our 7th year of full time sailing on our catamaran, a Lagoon 440

This video series will be more of interest to those who enjoy sailing in different destinations and not for general tourism purposes.

In Episode 5 of SAILING IN TASMANIA, We share some of the beautiful anchorages and sailing attractions between Port Arthur and St Helens on the NE coast of Tasmania.

Our sailing views are from Port Arthur to:
Sailing around the intrepid Tasman Island (Cape Pillar, Cathedral Rock)
Fortescue Bay / Canoe Bay for shelter from bad weather
Hen and Chickens ( a dramatic rock and mountain surrounded anchorage on Schouten Island South)
Wind Glass Bay
and we end with the passage into St Helens.

When we googled for some information on entering St Helens (a tricky and sometimes dangerous sand bar crossing) we found little to nothing so we will share a but more about that in our next video, however we do show our planned route from satelite imagery and then also the actual track we 'pulled' as we followed VMR (Volunteer Marine Rescue) in, a service they provide in return for a small donation to their cause. VMR do a great service for folks sailing around Australian waters - the authorities here are amazing!

Drone footage: We were advised by a Park Ranger on Mariah Island it is not permitted to fly drones there - fortunately the Park Ranger was close by when we took off so being in full view of him he kindly explained the rules.
It is prohibited from flying drones over land in National Park Territories so the only footage we are able to get is from over water looking onto the land apparently and even then one has to have full visual over the drone.
We never knew all these rules apply so be advised when sailing into Australian waters to respect local rules around drones.

Riley does some Boat Songs too - be sure to listen to some of his music folks
He recently became one of the first modern musicians to complete an entire tour on foot, walking 1600 miles with guitars strapped to strollers from Portland, Maine back to Nashville, stopping along the way to play shows with Arlo Guthrie, Lyle Lovett, Shakey Graves, Town Mountain, The Lonely Biscuits, and many more. Currently he is recording his first full length studio album which will be available this summer. He is constantly compared to Bob Dylan or John Prine.

Cruising Dinghy Sailing, Tasmania's East Coast

Cruising Dinghy sailing. Wooden Boat building. Adventures in Moonlight. Our sailboat is a 12 ft clinker dinghy built from Huon Pine in Tasmania around 1980 and sailed on Tasmania's East Coast, Freycinet Peninsula, Coles Bay and inland waters. Sailboat Cruising, exploring our favorite cruising grounds including Moreton Bay, Hervey Bay, The Great Sandy Strait and the coast of Fraser Island, a world heritage listed island of the coast of South East Queensland.

Yachting and sail, features a series of adventures in building, maintaining and sailing wooden boats and fiberglass boats. We enjoy the sailing part best, but in general we enjoy Mucking around in boats on and off the water.

Feeding the crew - usually just me - on these adventures, or any boating activities that keep you on the water for extended periods can be a challenge. This book provides inspiration and great recipes for hungry sailors.
I get a small commission if you buy it and that keeps me producing more Adventures in Moonlight videos.

If you are interested in more Dinghy cruising Adventures in Moonlight? is where you can find them. There are some partnership links where if you do choose to buy something I get a small commission, that helps me keep up the new content, because that takes a lot of time and effort. You don’t end up paying any more, so I think it makes sense, but I just want to be upfront with that. It won’t leap out at you and you won’t get spammed.

I have a detailed profile on linkedin, where you can check out my creds. and referees, as it takes high levels of trust to jump in on that level, but I don’t charge anything for the first consultation. I have experienced some of the extreme highs and lows and learnt some things i like to share to help who share the entrepreneurial spirit. linkedin.com/in/christophersly

I recently started a group called Boomers Refired, where we share ideas and inspiration for fellow Baby Boomers who believe the best is yet to come. We had a big part in making the world what it is today, and I think we have some explaining to do before we can leave it a better place. 10,000 days left to fulfil our purpose and leave planet Earth a better place. Your welcome to join us if you feel led in that way.

Fraser Coast Dinghy Cruising is an initiative to create opportunities to share the experience of minimal cruising on a shoestring in on the East Coast of Queensland.
