A full day out for not a lot.
Tried in-close spots around West and East reefs.
Then on to the Valiant - no bouy so anchoared. Then along came a dive boat and anchored on top of us, and proceeded to launch divers under our boat. Said sorry but ......Grrrr.......
Then to West Head.
Back to the Valiant. Had a couple of small yakkas roughed up - dory would be my guess as no hit, just a weight and no tell-tale squid bite mark.
On the way home we were waved down by another boat. Wanted a tow back into Brisbane water. Said they were just testing out their new purchase - an 18 ft, 2nd hand glass runabout, and thought the petrol in the tank was off. Any smart person would change the fuel after buying a 2nd hand boat as there is no way to know how old the fuel is. Also dont think they had radio, mobile, etc etc. Anyway, after a 50 min slow tow back, the most they could offer was a "Thanks mate, might be able to do the same for you sometime". I know if I was in their position I would be offering a $20 with profuse thanks.
Oh well, it was a good day to accumulate karma for the next trip.
