We didn't expect Lady K's new look to be so brief, but it was out of our hands as Cyclone Debbie hit with full force in the Whitsundays earlier this week.

Everyone said they had never before experienced such strong and sustaining winds so little wonder our newly acquired International 23 catamaran came unstuck. Wind gusts were recorded up to 263 km per hour, and for over 48 hours the winds were storm force or cyclonic. Once the eye of the cyclone had passed (which took 3 hours), the northerly wind then did the damage to Lady K as she was completely exposed in that direction.

She'll live to see another day though, once both hulls and the portside hatch are repaired.

That is such bad luck, I hope you can fix it
