Hey Edz, rain to me is like watching $50.00 notes falling outta da sky.....  ;D

Yeah, happy with the call we made regarding the weather.

I wonder how Booga got on going to Moreton yesterday after making this statement......

I am on the noosa northshore working today and its windy enough to blow your dog off the chain. North side of Moreton might be okish.

Good choice jeepers. We left teewah on sunday after 5 days in a house there. Weather was that bad we'd have packed and left on sat had we have been camping for this trip. That SE wind was hammering the rain down!

Yeah Wazza,

I'm pretty happy with the call mate. we got 68 mm over sat and sun and then it blew its guts out over sun Mon and even today, still a reasonable on shore wind.

We did however, sought of make it to Fraser today, we backed the boat out of the marina and went for a blurt. We stopped at Elbow Point, but still a tad windy, as the southeaster goes straight up the strait.

We ended up going up to Stewart Island, hung a right at the top, came back through Garry's Anchorage and back to the marina.

One of the guys who works there joined us a for chicken Caesar salad and a cold drink on the back of the boat. (about 2.5 hours too)

Might go out again tomorrow if its OK, as the wind will swing to the east/northeast, so much better.

The ol southeaster with an outgoing tide, tends to slop up a bit after a dose of wind.

Might even take the camera tomorrow.....

got off the island yesterday, weather was great, when we were on our way to the lighthouse some character got bogged at ngkala, so after 20 minutes of waiting we turned around. Some people need to let there tyres down alot more than they do, when your in a hurry and there is someone bogged, blocking the track it is farking annoying.
