Last week, Catherine and I sailed to Sawmill Bay (see Whitsunday Sunset). As we crossed Whitsunday Passage, a drone appeared out of the blue. It swooped past and circled around us a few times before flying back to a yacht in the distance. We had no idea who was flying the drone until today when through the intertwined network of social media we were given a YouTube link to the following video shot on 29 May 2017. We were sailing with just the jib because sometimes we decide to “take it easy” and don’t bother putting up the mainsail, depending on the wind, how far we’re cruising and whether we’ve got the energy.
