Blog Entry 35 - 19th November 2008

Hi Folks,
Small update on our progress.  We are currently 23 48S - 152 55E and after dodging large coal ships and fishing fleets we now anticipate an arrival at Fraser at 1400 today and Thursday morning at Morton light.  We received adverse weather conditions from our weather router and on nearing Morton light we will get a further report.  If adverse, we will go into Mooloolabah or alternately into Morton Bay traveling the back passage through to Southport.  Couple of days there we will probably see the expected gale force winds to blow through.  Best be sure than sorry.

Jack.

We have been towing our normal lure the past twelve hours and have caught nothing.  This lure has been really successful and I am not sure why the Australian fish don't want a piece of it. Come to think of it I had better check that there is still a lure on the end of the line...   Roger has just brewed a fresh batch of plunger coffee which is a new addition to the boat thanks to Bruce and we are going to have a slice of Christmas Fruit Cake.  At this rate I think I will need to put a piece of tree branch in a cup and throw some tinsel on it because although we are coming, so is christmas.

Lots of Love,
Scott.

JACK again:
I just read that and guess who's going to be swimming home.
