Where did you go on your sailing boat today?

Nice one white-out

The latest gossip on the resort is that it was sold by Audami the mining company to a South African Petroleum Billionaire who is going to rebuild it to a 5 star resort. Lets wait and see but the idea is promising for a little work for me and a few others to build a resort in an area where there is a lot of unemployment.

Does lizard island count?

Had my first solo sail on Larrikin today - can't get the grin off my face :)

Woohoo! Congrats Lazzarae!
Looks like a nice day for it. How did you go docking?

Thanks SB - I've had the boat in the water for nearly 2 years but the mast only went on early this year & then the rigging & sails. Christened the sails a fortnight ago.

I am on a swing mooring so don't have to get into a berth but I have no trouble docking at wharves & jetties these days. At 18t I had to learn not to take out the smaller jetties!!

I'm jealous Jode5, it looked to be a glorious day to be on the water, and I don't get to see the boat till this Friday.

just out of St Kilda at midday.

great photo

Here's a pic of my hard dodger under construction

Finished our trip today with the final passage from Wollongong to Callala bay. 9 hours, not as quick as previous day

View of cliffs around point perpendicular was spectacular.

Any fish? Few good Kingfish along there at the moment, probably stop a NS27 dead though. I'm heading out this morning but will probably go North.

Glorious day at sea today. Sailed up to Geroa and just off the point broke the headsail halyard. Fortunately I have another one, my boat has 2 of everything. Only about 10 to 12 knots of wind and I had the sail down and rehoisted fairly easily. Probably kept the patrons of the Fishermans Club at Geroa amused as they lunched!

No fishing, but did see some young Dolphins. I was surprised how long it took to sail around Beecroft peninsula. Once we were in Jervis and heading to Callala we noticed the navionics app on iPhone had two long thin sections of land where it was clearly water. Same app on iPad didn't show it. Strange.
