Sailing Through Squalls & Leaving Our Plaque at the Famous Percy Island Yacht Club

Episode 386 : Season 12 : Sailing Australia

Hello Friends,
On this episode we haul up the anchor in 30 knot gusts and sail off into a squally day. We had fantastic sailing wind and the air was warm so the rain didn't bother us much. This turned out to be one of our favorite sailing days of the year! Soon we were approaching Middle Percy Island and got the hook dropped at West Bay.

I had read about Middle Percy Island in the book "Around the World in Wanderer III" by Eric Hiscock from their visit here in 1955. I was eager to see if the old telephone booth from the book was still onsite. We had also heard about the famous Percy Island Yacht Club, which is a simple A-frame structure and were interested to see all of the signs and mementos from cruisers who have visited over the years. We had prepared our own plaque to leave with the collection, a fun nautical tradition amongst cruising sailors the world over.
