Good to hear SM..I have a few building projects to get done as well but I'll wait till we are in the proper dry season first..

and yeah its getting windy alright..we went for a spin out on the water yesterday in a solid 15 knots with metre and half steep almost-breaking waves once we got past the protection of the islands..

We ended up just spending the morning trolling the shoals out by the shipping channel for one single Doggie mackeral as it was too rough when we tried to anchor and fish....nice day out, though thank god for a decent set of clears and we didnt have a problem finding a park right beside the ramp.. .only saw one other boat out wide and none at all on the mackeral grounds...

Be interesting to see whether we get much rain out of this windy weather change in coming days..
