Passing the Spit

Chopping, churning,

Tossing swells

Ploughing through the waves

This way, that way

Water crashing

Siderails slippery when wet

Sloshing water on the deck

Hold on tight, we are a leaning

Push past the waves

Push along the swell

Past the last channel marker

Out to sea

Face swell head on

Bow up

Crash down

Bow up

Repeat

Travelling through the ocean waves

Now we are past Mooloolaba Spit.
