That is a shame Denis, the road isn't what it used to be now I only take about an hour 30 in the big boat through fin road these days.

yes I know Andy, a bit more sealed stuff now

maybe we can do a trip a little later

look forward to it

Hmm ,,,just working out fuel and a crew . Only been out that way once ,keen to give it another go.

I would be keen, weather permiting that is.
did a run out there last year same time it was glass for 3 days made the run out and back comfortably be abit hairy if a good storm hit that far out.

love to get out to flat top.. depends on weather, I want glass..
should be able to do ~450km comfortably with a 60l drum

only a few weeks away now - who is still keen - looks like we will be leaving Thursday arvo 2 Oct back Sunday morning from Dundee?

Damn

I am leaving that Thursday morning early to drive to Adelaide
make sure you all put a few pics up of the fish caught

I am in, leaving Friday arvo from Darwin, will hang around off Dundee for the night and then head out early Satruday. If the weather is questionable will keep going to Cape Ford.

Back from Alaska and Rockies. I am def going somewhere as visitors coming. Weather indications look pretty shite for next weekend perfect this weekend but huge tides

Good thing we are going in two weekends Andy

Got a little bit tired while writing that one. What I meant was the weather looks pretty reasonable this weekend 27th but huge tides, there looks to be a high ready to collide with the weekend of the 4th I were a betting man. It's on the march in the Indian Ocean closer to Africa than us at the moment and it could amount to not much at this time over year but that is the very early outlook. They are are already calling the intensity down from the 1032 yesterday to 1026 this morning so it might slip through before that weekend. I will be heading to somewhere regardless and hopefully out wide to the banks still.

weather has been great out past the inshore winds Andy. should stay that way for a while now.

Cool thanks Peter I am itching to get back out and have a crack

Always a trade of with a trip like this......................
I always used to work on how much fuel needed vs how much fuel you burn carrying said fuel.
After the last trip my main concern is how to carry enough cold beverages as it is a firken long boring trip and last time I ran out of grog
