We had planned to go to Port Hacking with Alfreds Cruising. Unfortunately, the weather looked uninviting and the cruise was cancelled. As the weekend rolled by, the weather wasn't as bad as forecast originally which left us with that "if only" feeling.
So we decided to motor "up the creek" towards Bobbin Head on Saturday with an ambition to anchor at Houseboat Bay, close to Bobbin Head. Along the way, it became clear that the rest of the world had the same idea and all the beautiful little bays along Cowan Creek all had their quota of moored and anchored boats.
Much to our surprise however, when we got as far as Bobbin Head, we spotted an unoccupied public mooring! When the permanent moorings were removed there recently, National Parks put in a couple of public moorings (as well as a two in Houseboat Bay). We'll keep them a secret, I think. And as a bonus, we enjoyed a beautiful sunrise on that extra long (25hr) Sunday.
