A very good idea Ian. I suggest that there be a seperate thread for each state and if somebody can tell us how to do it, a Google Earth reference for each location be posted.

The Mackay blokart people mainly use Bucasia Beach on the north side. It is apparrently quite a reliable spot. They also use the vigaro field but if it is not a blokart you might have issues with permission.

That being said, if it is public parkland, you have every right to use it in a non damaging manner whether there is a lease over it or not. Public parkland exists for the recreational use of all members of the general public. Cheers Cisco.

PS:- Re sticky threads. Private mail hills about it. He is the moderator for us now and I am sure he will be amenable to the idea.

One of the best sailing venues near Brisbane is the southern end of Bribie Island using the access at Red Beach for southerlies and at the motel on the east side of the island when there is more east in the breeze.

Ok Phil, Any idea on how to post the Google Earth thing. All the types of surfer people are doing it. I will post on one of their forums and ask if someone can explain how to do it. Cheers Cisco

How about this.. a Pic of Port Gawler SA.


Have a look at the road names of the area...

Go to google maps, select satellite pic and use a program in windows VISTA called "Snipping Tool" in the Accessories folder in "programs" folder.
I think the tool is only in Vista as i have never seen it in XP.
The selected section is then saved as a jpeg file like a picture.
