I think Brad and Vando the quickest....and no 40kts. Will let them give their exact speeds when they get back. Only 16-20kts today, but most of the crew stayed up there, so hopefully tomorrow.

not disappointed- tomorrow was the day it was expected to happen. There is so much sand there that yer the banks wont disappear. The end might change shape & the washout areas could get bigger. Its more how much of burrum township itself will survive, the area sits pretty low & is quite open.

Four Burrum Heads tracks (from 8 and 9 March) now on www.ka72.com/

Including one 40.92kt.

Looks like it was worth the trip.

Anyone got a faster track for the site?
