Bluebell to Chartreuse Bay- Alpha Island

Checking in today from Alpha Island, Chartreuse Bay. We had an awesome stay Bluebell Island, fantastic spot, fun company and Ted got 3 surfs- 2 in one day...he is very stoked with life at the mo 🙂 Our chilli crab night was fun, very yummy and late so the dawn surf had slow start. 1 day of recovery then off to a progressive cocktail and curry night between boats...a goodbye party as a few crew exiting Montys for further travels. Cool to visit other boats as everyone has an idea or too on how to live the SV life. This weekend we hit our 1 month milestone onboard- great times and a few lessons learned to date...mostly we need to remember to pause the chillax to check water, power every now and again. The other night the boat power totally shut off - a few overcast days, a few loads of washing and a late night party drained the batteries down...we learnt hangover with motors running for 3 hrs not ideal. Also learnt our water maker is very effective when turned on...last weeks were so busy off boat we neglected to put the time in and ended up on our back up tank. Tomoz check will be food & drink supplies as ideally we want to do 2 more weeks out here. We used the last of our Cvon produce today for lunch so frozen green stuff next.... Ted did get a lovely coral trout this arvo so we are not going it do it too hard 🙂 Internet bit sketchy as we are tucked in behind big hill, if they get through our 1st photos are at Bluebell, 2nd our new home in ChartreuseRead more
