FSW. Even if we get good wind, I don't think there is time for a good swell to build.
A FSW will get you more time on the water, I think.

Looks like teh southerly change has kicked in early here on the southern Goldie.
But do I want to risk getting caught in the EAster traffic ???
Would I rather shoot myself in the head ??

What are the tide harmonics for Burrum? Are they like Mooloolaba?

Tide harmonics ??
If you mean tide times, a nice man at Burrum taught me that tide is related to longitude, so there is not much difference along the Qld coast.
Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuut, good luck finding any place to stay up that way at Easter.
Didn't someone mention a big fishing comp ??

If there is a bit of west in it or even south I will keep an eye on Currumbin.
Loves a bit of south in it. [}:)]

Shearwater is actually a typo at easter. It should read SHAREWATER.

is shearwater bad with some west in the wind?

over the far side u can sail it, but overall viccy is the better option with generally less holes in the wind when there's a touch of west

should be closer 4 u anyway?

i'm still hoping for south at shearwater

Wello gives some nice accessible ramps in a southerly out on the edge of the shelf at mid to low tide.
I dunno if there will be wind for that though.
