There is no port more distinctive than Coffs Harbour along the East Coast of Australia: this is not your average rocky wall protecting its entrance, but a fortress looking breakwater both to the South and now to the North of the harbour. We stayed inside for a few days with the northerlies blowing.
Summer cruising makes us intensely aware of the weather and its vagaries. Each year we experience intense storms, endure extreme temperatures for long periods, get worried about severe thunderstorms, get drenched by heavy rains. It makes us conscious of the need to be prudent in our sailing, and grateful for what we are able to enjoy right…
We have made it into NSW! But now we are stuck again, hiding from the mean southerly winds that are wiping out half of the Sydney to Hobart fleet!
