yeah i noticed the forecast in Bass Strait is a little wild
www.bom.gov.au/vic/forecasts/centralgippslandcoast.shtml
yup, 46 knots measured before right where my boat is (was).
The southerly cold front is yet to come through , still northerlies here at the moment, and 46 knots would have been in the shade.
I hope all your boats stay were you left them last.
Massive high tide too.....
yup, Winter is nigh upon us once more, time to up anchor a head North if your lucky enough to be able to do so, otherwise it's a case of bundle up and bunker down
Took a look at Mornimngton around 10 am to see how it was going with the new pier with the wave barrier. Inside its a lot better but for boats moored outside of the protection zone it's still a wild and risky ride. There is one, a Beneteau up on the beach, luckily wnhere there arnt many rocks....... might have dodged them.

A wild day at work currently just of western port fairway bouy
To rough to go in and anchor I case it drags ,a bit rough to stay out currently high fifties ,beauty about northerlies stay in the lee of the land swell here about 2 meters 6 miles offshore 6 meter swell .
Spiggie, I think you're supposed to keep the mast pointing up, and the keel down? Must be wild out there 
wow its been windy 60 knots here at port sorell last night and massive swell in bass strait i am glad my mooring held but this is why i have over a 1000kg on the bottom more to come
