Monday 16 June
Left Pancake Creek and moved up to Turkey Beach passed some good reef which we fished without any luck. Counted 10 ships moored offshore from Gladstone.
Went up Robb’s Harbour to the township of Turkey Beach. Anchored offshore and rowed to beach. Walked a long way to the general store. Bought a carton of beer and things ,walked back to boat. Talked to a local who said houses here were around $ 500,000 not bad for beach shacks.
We were sitting on the boat at 1600 hrs having a beer when the sandflies arrived, thousands of them. Upped anchor and raced –as fast as you can on Holly---to the mouth of Rodd’s Harbour where we anchored for the night minus the sandflies.
