Joy and I are taking Te Moana north, along the NSW coast for a few weeks to celebrate the start of the warmer weather. With a bit of luck and favourable weather, we hope to get up to Yamba and perhaps even Grafton. I adapted a spreadsheet which the club distributed a few years ago with distances between NSW ports into a Cruise Planner. If anyone is interested in our schedule or in building their own, you can download it here here.
We had hoped to depart from Broken Bay today, but the wind is from the North at up to 30 knots. Tomorrow is sounding better, with the wind turning to the southwest for a nice run up to Pt Stephens as a first leg. I hope to make regular entries to this weblog over the next few weeks, using my new Mobile Internet connection from Telstra. In Major centres it provides broadband-like speeds, while in other places is uses CDMA 1x which is a shade faster than a conventional modem and should works for most of our journey at sea. I'll let you know how well it works.
