Somebody sent me this cool drone footage google drive video of Stansbury, South Australia (source: Shane T ?). Let's see if the site can display it. Sailors: Hoppy, Carl M and Tricky.

I just looked on a map where it was, could you sail (with the right wind condition) across from Adelaide ?

You hit razor fish (ie: clam shells) when you run too close to the sand bar - they give you notice.

@FishMints, 70km tack. You would need support. Conditions don't last long in this Gulf.

That's an unconventional gybing technique at 2:00. Front foot at the mast base out of the straps. What's the idea?
