Here we go again-Port Macquarie to Mooloolaba

    After our first northern sailing trips, we realised Two XS needed some extra refinements to deal with the heat of the Tropics, and the exposure to the elements expected in further travels. So back at Port, with the help of many mates , Bill achieved these improvements.
