Blog Entry 24 - Twenty sixth Oct 2008

Hi Folks,
Email from Clouds Badham confirming we have a partial weather window for wednesday the 29th we are checking this with passage weather and buoy weather on the net which also gives weather predictions and feel with a little luck we can leave Muskat Cove on the 28th.
We have a safety net at new caledonia as our direct track to Coffs harbor to clear customs etc runs within 50 NM of port Mozelle so weather permitting we can stay on course for australia.
Assuming we strike some bad weather necessitating a reduction in speed we should arrive in Coffs harbor on November the 6th, say one day to clear customs and have a north wall combo, a steak and lobster dish at the pier restaurant we should arrive at the marina on november 8th or 0th at the latest.
We will be in a position to give an accurate eta on arrival at Coffs Harbor however a s promised we will go all out for a weekend arrival back home.  The weather here today is unsettled and according to clouds is left over from the recent QLD storms.
Love to all,
Jack.
