It is said that sailing the Gold Coast Broardwater is sail up and motor back or visa versa.
Well, we sailed up AND sailed back.
Only took 77 tacks. I need a new pair of gloves though. Gary

Hey great effort. That's my hunting ground on a weekly basis . Must admit though on some weekends ,especially holiday periods , I leave the motor idling in neutral just in case.

Hi BB.
Would never try that on a weekend or holiday. You wouldn't get a mile before someone chopped you in half.
That was a beautiful winter's Tuesday.

Love this stuff. Here's a trace of a little trip we did earlier this year one Saturday morning up and back in the Brisbane River. 67 tacks.
