anyone sailed at Harrington ?

where dat choco

Just north of Taree on the mid north coast of NSW.
About 3-4 hours north of Sydney. Nice area too. Have sailed a few spots south of there but havent ventured to Harrington. After seeing that it should be a place to check out.

Just south of Port Macquarrie. Looks like a speed run to me if they ever get strong East to South East. Photos on Google Earth are interesting.

Here's another speed run the Goolwa alpha channel is at the top of the picture(running left toward the barrage) near the ocean,drought is good for something.

Yes Choco. re Harrington
Well, Manning Pt actually which is opp side of the river ( about opp the Irish pub in new estate). Down in the bottom left of your picture is spot where photos taken - you can see the wall in background.

Good 3/4+ km run in N/E.
Not sure of other directions

Looking N/E


Looking West from Manning Pt

Great shots Pete. I see you had your gps on, do you have any google earth tracks to show?

Thats gotta be a 30 plus knot run Pete. Come on, tell all

Yep - for sure

Got my 2-sec PB there (still well below 30)

The run up at Harrington should be OK in sthly but you have to watch the tide running in & out
