Weather

Well it's unbelievable but we have decided to abort our departure until at least later this week because since we last wrote the forecast has changed and we are expecting strong winds for the next few days. All caused by the big high over Tasmania and soon to be over NZ. Should be a respite from the wild weekend weather down there.
But for us these big highs throw strong SE winds onto the north Queensland coast and in view of the forecast for increasing winds to over 30 knots we considered it prudent to wait for a more benign situation.
Hopefully won't be too long.
At the moment (0700 on 6/5) in the marina it's only 7 knots from the SE!!
