So as some know am planning to move to Burrum so do any of you locals think its a good place to move to what is it like to live at & do many sail there regulary?

i am told the most important thing when moving to burrum is to always invite fellow windsurfers from bribane up to stay as often as possible.



i couldn't resist.

Is there much work up there? I work in IT at a school plus am a teacher. I used to run a computer support business but sold it. Its not the business I want to go back into as its pretty well saturated now.


My wife works in banking as a relationship manager plus she is qualified as a financial planner.

It's like any move Glynn, very much a personal thing what's great for some is crap for others, there's a lot of time to fill in between sails, it's always best to stay/rent for a while B4 committing.
Whenever there's wind (not as much wind as some would have U believe) average 3 sails a week with at least a couple of guys out.

Hervey Bay 30mins away is also great to sail in anything from West North thru to East but crap in south for which we go to Burrum.

am coming up tomorrow to hav a look at houses to buy not taking my gear as the wind will b to light. Wanted to see some local sailor but probley wont. Hav any of u locals got tips on where not to buy we dont want sand flys or any problems I heard some areas r bad.

Gday Glynn, how about a(little) move west? to some where around ..... say Perth!
recon we could find room for you with the SRM

o no I would be lost over there & to cold in winter for me. Sue & I love the warmth of Qld. Thanks anyway I may come for a visit thats all.
