1356 Kilometres from the mouth
Left at 10. Mainly because of where the beautiful machine was parked. About 6 meters down a bank to the water.
John and Tim in the modified sailer had to organise a transport around the next section because of low water. They will restart their trip at Boundary Bend.
I came across this. In a large reach, in the middle with 200 meters of water either side, my paddle suddenly hit bottom.
In the morning large reaches with wind, which is great. In the afternoon the wind died and I don’t think there will be any tomorrow either.
Took the Annabranch around Beverage Island. Saved a few kilometres. Looked more like the Murray than an Annabranch. After a while came across a private cable ferry with two heavy cables across the stream. Put the sail down, rudder up and backed over to the side where I could get under. Not sure how larger vessels would have coped.
Was thinking about going for Wood Wood but when I found the free camping here I decided to stop. Nyah, this town appears to be struggling and have allowed free camping all over their River parks and the surrounds of the trotting track and oval. Dozens of vans and motor homes here.
Shortish day tomorrow. 36 k to Tooleybuc. Sneaking up on the large distance to Boundary Bend. I think it will be two 50 plus with a rough camp in the middle.

You are still making good time, from google Nyah looks like a great spot. There looks to be a fair distance between camps between you and mildura, from memory the banks are quite high so it will probably pay to stop where you can get the yak out easily, even if you hadn’t travelled as far as you would like. How are the shoulders holding up? One of these towns must have a masseuse.

Shoulders were good today, but it was less intensive paddling because of the wind in the morning. Masseuse would be great.
Yes with the distance. Going to be difficult, I will plan to Boundary Bend tomorrow.
