Investigator Island to Butty Harbour

We left Investigator Island after a big cook up breakfast (not much reason to stay) in a light ENE breeze and again decided to motor sail to Butty Harbour in order to arrive there before dark. 

Butty Harbour was a delightful surprise, a U shaped bay providing good protection from east to northwest winds, crystal clear water and excellent holding.  The Dinghy was unfolded and we explored the sand hills and beach to the east of the anchorage.  The following day we made the decision to stay another night and walk to Butty Head.  This spot was another highlight of our sail to Esperance.
