20 Bold and Beautiful Swimmers.
0 Bluey’s
We walked down Ashburner this morning to swim in the harbour and it was lovely, calm clear water, gropers and rays.
The was one incident of a ship not moving out of Nicks way but he didn’t back down and there was a collision, so if it looks like the ferry is limping you know why.
Due to the prevailing wind we are most likely going to swim in the harbour for the next few days.

Nick you legend! (Were you able to scrub the green paint off your shoulder? One of the moored boats is now slowly sinking, do you know anything about that?)
