Now that is an interesting website.

Seems like the rig is off Wollongong heading for Brisbane at 2.5 knots...... Long trip.

Off Bonny Hills now, was lit up like a small city over night, only going 1.6kts

Just made Port Macquarie at 1600 hours today after passing Bonny Hills at 0830 Hours.

Thats very slow as it's out in the East Coast Current which flows up to 5 knots towards the south!
