Geocache Description:

A simple historic puzzle cache placed in Smokey Bay when mechanical problems forced us to abandon Goog's Track and the Sunny Side Up event.
Our upside was discovering the charms of the oysterfest, prtistine beaches and forgotten whaling history.

In 1846, JW Robinson on the Abeona landed 2 boat crews for the wahaling season. When he returned at the end of the season he found that they had more than they could carry. So he left behind XX tuns of oil, equipment and two men to guard the booty.
Read the story of Long Jim and then head XX metres away to see how well his luck wound up and find the cache. Your clue to the direction is in this description.
The cache is a rustic looking magnetic nano. There aren't too many spots, the cache is in plain view and shoudn't be too hard to find for most cachers.
Local cachers Captash has kindly agreed to maintain the cache - as they were not involved in the planning or hiding of the cache, they retain all finder's rights.
