If you have to sail from Southport to Sydney, and you’re in a hurry, what would you wish for: 25 knot northerlies and a 3 knot current behind you? That’s exactly what we’ve got! In just over 10 hours since leaving the Gold Coast Seaway we’ve done 90 miles directly towards our target: Broken Bay, Sydney. At this rate we’ll do the 400 mile trip in less than 48 hours, even allowing for loss of the current around Port Macquarie!
