Okay had my first taste of the southern ocean and the swell is quite daunting. I'll get ready here in Esperance and have a few day hops out to Middle Island and Leave from there to Streaky Bay. Getting the weather right is the hard part, I heard tonight a boat has been waiting here for three months. I won't be waiting that long I'll get on the back of a front and am bound to get hit by another one before I get across.

Good Luck Mate,

Sitting at Camden Haven in rain and strong winds. won't get away until about midday.

stay safe Phillip, thanks for posting all my fixes. get one of those big bait caster sling shots for the crocs mate.

I've set up a share page that will show the last 7 days of fixes (hopefully) as of now there is only the test I sent of sundowner at anchor. When I'm on the move I send a fix report morning and afternoon. Also one when I reach anchorage.

if you shrink the map you should see the land

Hi Rob. Do u you use the Bom swell chart. It gives a seven day swell forecast and is pretty accurate

yeah I've got all the shortcuts to bom in a folder but of late I've been using buoy weather app which gives wind and swell for five days wherever you drop the pin

That link works well for me. I'm interested to see where you get to. : )

troppo

last internet I guess so just a quick one
waited week or more at duke of Orleans bay but no suitable fronts coming for me so I'm just gonna take what I get and do my best to get over the border. See you in SA soon I hope.
Rob
