Well done Lyn!!!!!!!

awesome 5x10 there Firie! knocked us back a notch umm...got to go get another bintang

Ha, I fixed it Snides, I'm deff not able to do a 3,043 Knot 5x10

Holly snapping duck poo Cam, you were 18K's out in that wind with a 7.3M sail, crazy basket

The white line is to where I think Cam's boom gave way, that's 5K out mate

Don't worry about the yellow track, it's from an old track that Google wont let go

Cam had 2 files today, I think this is his track trying to rescue himself

Great to have some wind finally. Got the cobwebs off the 5.5 Ezzy Freeexpression and hooked the Fanatic Cross 100 with a 30cm Extreme Slalom skeg. Great to enter the world of the best god sport around. Thanks guys for all the help.

good work team!! cold and rainy in WA.

Boom explosion way off shore not a good start to the day !!Rerigged remaining 1/2 boom -made it to double island negotiated breaking waves/oyster rocks etc,attempted to sail across channel to shore when remaining 1/2 of boom exploded into 3 pieces-swam back to island,carried rig across 500m of rocky reef(low tide) made it to the double island resort where the nightly fee is $20000 !!!! & was promptly abused by resort staff member +++ for trespassing -What A day -possibly worst sailing experience of life.Convinced a staff member finally to take me across channel in small dingy -too rough at jetty so dumped me in shore break with remaining rig & promptly left me to swim into shore (mainland)again  with board,mast /sail/harness lines.Cost -around $2000 in boom/lost Gps unit/lost harness lines/lost wages ....

Don,t tell me Cam, let me guess, all this happened in your lunch hour.

Anyway, after seeing the way you sail at Green Island I think you would survive the Perfect Storm.

Go back to work for half a day, that should pay for damages, and a night on Double Island.

Cam, bit disappointing to hear you suffered major gear failure so far out. Even worse, to hear how our fellow Australians treated you in your time of need. What a bunch of %$^&$#^^&^%^*&^&&*& 's When I last checked, the requirement is always to lend assistance to stranded sailors suffering gear breakage.  Hope some day those who complained and didn't help, suffer a similar fate

Sorry to hear about that Dr Cam. Bugger about the gps. Did it get waterlogged? I had a mate in the middle east who broke his UJ and floated in to the local navy base. Not only did they acuse him of trespass but they threw him in the clink for 24 hrs!

His family finally got him out but it always gave sailing that edge as you sailed past the naval base.

Do you carry flares on your solo excursions?

makes me appreciate sailing in a lake alot more,good to see you will sail another day,you can replace gear

Not a good way to treat one of the nicest blokes on the planet !

Glad u made it back OK DR Cam, take care

Firie and DR Cam, I hope you both carry mobiles when sailing so far out, gear breakage(boom, fin) is always on my mind and why I dont usually go too far out, especially by my lonesome
