Thank you Rana for email. I have been unable to give this cache some maintenance. I am hoping
to do this within the next four weeks. Accept my apologise for any inconveniences

Will replace a new cache shortly

Had a quick look for this one while we out out aquacaching. Didn't spend too long what with the last DNFs. We didn't find it either.

Log uploaded using GSAK macro and Garmin Oregon 400c

Out for a day of caching, relaxing, cycling, and island hopping on the bay islands. No luck with this one. We did see a small snake slither away into the tall grass near this one.

We also searched to area with Jabes7 with no luck. The area around the big tree has been cleaned out but the area where Jabes7 had previously found the cache had not been touched but the cache could not be located.

JABES7 met us as we got off the ferry. Even with her help we couldn't find this cache. The bench was obvious but it looks as though a lot of clearing has been done & so maybe the cache was in the large pile of vegetation covering the picnic table.

The fourbees and the piggies could not find this one

Found easy enough, especially when you are working in the company of Hothead, CaleD, Urdera and Geopilots, thanks Tam for the find [:-)]

Found at event island time with Hothead, CaleD, The Lost Bunch and Geo Pilots.

We found this one with Fehrgo but I can't say that we actually saw the bench???? We did contemplate hiding If's kayak paddles - but alas he came back to his kayak right as the mischief was about to begin. No swaps today. Thanks for the cache and bringing us over to the islands.

Found on the Island Time cachers event day.

Nice little spot, all part of a great day.

Found Ok

Found in the company of jabes who was making sure I didn't miss out on this cache. First for the morning, on a tour around the island to attend the Island Time event. TFTC

Struggled with this one until a friendly fellow cacher helped out. Left a pink plane. Thanks.

Another one 'on Island time' nearly have the full set now!

We were traipsing along with the MadMyers and Fehrgo. Went to the co-ords, could not see a place to sit anywhere. Found the about 11 metres away. Mongy soon had the cache in hand, signed and ready to move on.

Someone doesn't like cacti!

Found with Geo Pilots, Urdera, hothead and The Lost Bunch during Island Time!

was easy. tnlnsl. was with urdera, the lost bunch, geopilots and caleD. tftc

Gave up the first time and went and found the other 2 on the Island, a frantic search with some help and we found it just in time before the next ferry.

12:00 Found after an nice ferry ride was in the company of Cooroy Scouts we where in the area as part of the Island Time event.

Easy to find if walking onto another group who found it before you.

Retreived in the company of Keightvee and the Myers. GPSr was reading coordinates 12m south of the listed ones. TFTC!

Found in the company of Urdera, The Lost Bunch, CaleD and HotHead as part of the Island Time event cache.
Dropped off Wally the Wombat TB.

grabbed bugs

The terrain was the hint I needed and the cahce was retrieved in seconds. TFTC.

Found on a Bay Island caching day with Lat&Long Junkies. We meet up with jabes7 and had a go at this one. After much searching the goods were finally located. We found the co-ords were a few meters out.
TFTC

Found with Mrs Lat&Long, Bedmaker and Jabes7. We all started some 15 metres away but quickly gravated to the "isolated bench". Without that clue it may well have been another DNF. Bedmaker hates DNFs and we'd started the day with one. This cache was gonna get got ... and so it did. TN/LN/SL. Great to meet up with Jabes7 and compare notes.

Well, the four of us were scouring this part of the island and wirh co-ords that weren't that accurate it was prooving to be a bit difficult. However we found the elusive Yowie. TN LN TFTC

As I live on the island, I've had a few half-hearted attempts at finding this cache, usually when I had a few minutes spare while waiting for the WaterBus. I've been reluctant to look in some spots that could be home to some creepy crawlies, but today in the company of the very brave Bedmaker & Mr Lat & Long Junkie, the cache was extracted after a fair bit of searching. TNLN, but I did wave my new TB "I've Got the Quilting Bug" over it to log the beginning of its journey. Thanks ozcymru - I'm glad to have this one off my list.

Found this cache easily while out in the tinnie chasing caches for the River Deep Mountain High geocaching game. Will return one day to the area to find other nearby caches. TFTC

I have been very remiss at logging this trackable. It came for a visit to this cache a little while ago.

A nice easy find in a beautiful area TFTC.

Luckily this one came easily to light. And it was off to the other one on the island. TFTC.

Found while doing the Yowie series(and some extras). We could have picked a cooler day, but the afternoon rain was nice. Took a little while to find the cache TFTC TNLN

lots of mossies but very fun that was my last cache of the day

Thanks to ozcymru for the cache.

THIS WAS MY LAST OUT OF THEM ALL I HAD A FUN DAY AND I WAS TIRED

nice ferry with my 2 daughters and their grandparents.

aaaargh!,ye' pirate spotted this one with me good eye as we were walkin' up to gz,another great spot and one more booty plundered with me new crew ye'hawmorfords! thanks ftc.

Today was the day to sail the bay with a real Pirate - how excited Denise and I were !!!

We've had this planned for a couple of months now and have been looking forward to our big day out very much.

Yowie series 3 was our tenth find of the day aboard the Black Skull.

I tell you, this Pirate fella is good .... he spotted this cache from 50 paces! Denise asked if it was an easy one when we returned to the Black Skull... i replied that they are all easy if you have the Pirate with you!

Thanks to ozcymru for the cache.

The second caching experience of our excursion with THENANKS and Broc. After being dropped off by the water taxi we quickly made our way to what we thought was gz. We started to widen our search and then after reading the clue started looking in the right direction. Found after a bit of a search. Thanks for the cache.

THENANKS had geo nephew/cousin Broc out with them today and he made his first ever geocache find here. Unfortunately our GPS had us quite a way from the cache for a while but it was found because of the clear description in the clue.

We made no swaps at this one and then headed off to look for the other cache on this Island. [^]

Thanks

Yowie, a fun day to be out on the bay
I arrived at the jetty in style. By kayak of course, it was just a quick paddle from Macleay Island. I didn't have to leg it too far on Lamb to find the cache
Yep, no satellites to be seen in this little park, but the cache was in one of the likely spots
I took Dan's Double Dragon Geocoin # 2 and left Wonkey Donkey to look after the cache for a while.

Hooray another FTF.... Found the cache at 7.25am. From Yowie Series 4 and wait for next ferry - approx 40 mins. Love the ferry - more relaxed... No swap except left: Coin. Thank you for organise the hunt.
