Description

Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, H0ratio; a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy; he hath 8orne me on his back a thou2and times; and now, how abhorred in my imagination it is! My gorge rises at it. Here hung those lips that 1 have kissed I know not how oft. Where be your gibe2 now? Your gam8ols? Your songs? Your flashes of merriment, that were wont to set the table on a roar? (Hamlet, V.i)

A spur of the moment trip to Hobart gave Mr T the opportunity to launch the dinghy and tackle rowing to the island.

The weather was kind and the mission was successful. Accompanied by Mr W they made quick work of the water crossing completing the find and returning to shore in just under an hour.

Thanks Budgietas for the puzzle and cache.

I'm confused - why is this listed with its posted coordinates on King Island when GZ is in the south of the State??

Myself and the goose had been looking at these new caches for a bit but one was unsolved a few weeks ago but with a bit of a push we worked out the last puzzle and we made plans to get to this island before it was closed.
Last weekend we tried but the weather wasn't with us and we had to turn back without even putting a anything in the water, wind was 25Kts and we could see white horses so the idea of kayaks or my trusty blow-up went out the window.

We re-grouped and made new plans and called in a few favours so we had a tinny and an outboard to help if the weather was bad, but as it turned out it was a nice day with little wind and we soon made the crossing in about 5 minutes , the first find took a little bit of time but the rest were quick spots by team Gilligan and we were all business and only had a short stop after the last one to grab a couple of photos and then we headed back to the mainland.

All up the trip took less than an hour, setup and tear down took longer tbh, we took a moment to congratulate out selves and we headed off to our next adventure.

Thanks for the puzzles and the caches, glad to get these on a last legal day we could.

The goose hatched a plan for visiting the Island before the cut off dates and we were all set to go last weekend with the rat in tow as well, except when we arrived with the kayaks the conditions were terrible. A surfboard probably would have worked easier on the white caps. So today we returned with a dinghy aptly christened The Minnow with the crew: The Skipper (goose), Gilligan (rat) and The Professor (Mr W). They set sail (cranked the motor) and were away. They made it in quick time (a lot quicker than a kayak and a lot drier!). The cache was found and the log signed. A triple FTF. Thanks Budgietas for the puzzle, a new zone and for a fun day out with mates. TFTP

Last one of the four caches we came to find here. We circled around to GZ from the south and I spotted the cache immediately. After logging this one we returned to the 'Minnow'for voyage home. Al up the boat journey and finds took just under an hour. We were back on land before 9am, job done!
Thanks Budgietas. Four out of four triple FTFs today. It was worth getting up Cool
