More beautiful unseasonably warm days and no waves again. May explain the frustration in my posts.

You should have been up here yesterday, we had to pick up our new boat & bring it up from the Gold Coast to Manly, the waves in Moreton Bay were big enough to surf . Scared ourselves silly :scared: :scared: :scared:

Just had a look at the Burleigh Broadband cam on coastwatch. Looks a little choppy there with that NNW. Not much wave action though.

We just bought a 31' Mustang, an older one, not brand new. I have a pic somewhere online if I can find it, took some yesterday as well but havent downloaded them off the camera yet.
Why would we be moving to Sydney?

Yep, we looked at that one too, but didnt like it. That also has a flybridge which is one of the reasons we didnt like it.
Ours is in much better condition .

Fantastic boat. I do like mucking around on water. I went out of the heads in a similiar boat earlier in the year and experienced sea sickness for about 5 hours.
We caught a 20 kg dolphin fish which was an experience. Seeing hundreds of dolphins swimming with the boat was good as well. I think I will check the weather the next time as the sea sickness was hell.
