Cape Melville National Park. A hidden paradise, only a good days drive north of Cairns. The perfect place to relax on the cape. Located in far north Queensland on the eastern coast of cape york, it is a remote area, requiring you to be self sufficient. Crocodiles do frequent the area, so it is important when camping to setup camp high up on the beach. Any decent 4x4 can travel to Cape Melville, though a snorkel and off-road tyres are highly recommended.
This is part 2 of 7 of my Cape York Adventure, which I completed in June 2008 after 3 weeks travelling Cape York solo in my 200tdi Land Rover Defender 110 Station Wagon.

Early Defender's were produced without a relay for the headlights. This resulted in high currents passing directly through the headlight switch. Over time, the heat generated from these high currents melted the contacts within the switch and caused it to fail, resulting in the loss of headlights. The voltage drop from the under-rated wiring can be more than 1V! This reduces light output significantly.
After my switch failed I decided it was time to add a relay into the wiring system. This is an easy installation which does not require any modifications to the existing headlight loom. A H4 male connector plugs into the existing headlight plug and powers the relays.
Google "Headlight relay" to find a suitable wiring diagram to follow. Making the relay loom is a simple procedure that anyone with a basic degree of electrical knowledge can achieve. Ready-made kits are also available. Search google and you should find one.

Hinchinbrook Island National Park, and the several small surrounding islands, are one of tropical North Queensland's most picturesque spots. Located between Townsville and Cairns, the area is home to beautiful sandy beaches, dense island forests, mangroves, mountains and crystal clear waters. What more can you ask for.
In August 2009, several mates and I hired a houseboat for a week to explore and enjoy this little piece of Australian paradise. We explored the Northern end of Hinchinbrook island and the several islands to the north. An adventure in the making.
"Part 2 - The Fishing" is a highlight reel of some of the great catches experienced during the week. Using bait, lures, trolling and popping techniques a decent haul was caught for a fresh feed of fish.

My exploration of Sturt National Park continues, driving to Fort Grey campgrounds along Cameron Corner Road. I encounter a dust storm, visit Cameron Corner where the three states of NSW, QLD & SA meet, emergency mechanical repairs to my Defender, and a desert hike to visit Sturt's blazed tree.

After 16 years of faithful service from my IPF Spotlights, I am retiring them. I'm replacing them with a 22" HardKorr XDD-650 Gen-4 LED Lightbar.
Thus far very happy with the light output and spread mounted on my Land Rover Defender 110. Day and night difference. Let's see how it holds up over the coming years.

While performing morning checks on my engine bay I discover a bush rat had chewed through several components during the night. I use self amalgamating tape to repair a fuse holder.

I install a rear door gas strut in a Land Rover Defender station wagon. The gas strut is far superior at keeping the rear door open on uneven surfaces.
The Mulgo Defender gas strut kit comes complete with all fixings and detailed instructions. Due to my rear door table modifications, I had to relocate the strut to the top of the door frame and make new mounts. The original door stay was left in place at the bottom.
The Mulgo Gas strut kit can be purchased from http://www.expeditioncentre.com.au
