Bathurst Harbour (Port Davey system), in south‑west Tasmania, is a vast, almost land‑locked estuarine harbour inside the Southwest National Park and World Heritage Area. It offers a remote, sheltered anchoring environment protected from the Roaring Forties, but demands careful planning, an awareness of marine‑reserve rules, and a willingness to operate in shallow, tannin‑stained waters. Best suited to experienced coastal cruisers and small expedition yachts prepared for self‑sufficiency, Bathurst Harbour is more a place to linger and explore on foot and by tender than a port of call for busy,
Explore →Deen Maar (the island and adjacent coastal region off south‑west Victoria) is a small but significant offshore island and coastal protected area offering dramatic cliffs, important seabird and seal habitat, cultural values for Gunditjmara and Eastern Maar Traditional Owners, and a clear contrast between exposed Bass Strait seascape and the comparatively sheltered waters inside the Moyne/Port Fairy approaches. From the water it is best treated as an ecological and cultural landmark rather than a place for casual landings: recreational boating activity is concentrated at Port Fairy, Killarney, Y
Explore →Ashmore Reef is a remote, uninhabited oceanic reef and low-lying island group in the Timor Sea that offers a stark, conservation-led sailing environment rather than typical recreational cruising. It is distinctive for its exposed coral reef, vegetated sand islands and strong legal protections, including tightly controlled access and traditional Indonesian fishing arrangements. Visiting from a recreational yacht is logistically challenging, subject to regulatory limits, and suited only to well-prepared offshore passages or research/management charters rather than casual day sails.
Explore →Batemans Bay and the Clyde River form a classic NSW South Coast cruising region where a sheltered, tidal estuary meets a short, island‑dotted entrance to the Tasman Sea. It’s distinctive for easy access from Canberra, a mix of river and bay sailing, a compact marina and mooring network, and a river entrance (the Clyde River bar) that can change rapidly. The area suits day sails, weekend cruising, trailer‑boat exploration and sheltered coastal passages; offshore or long‑passage plans require careful timing and local knowledge. Preparation for tidal flow, variable southerly swells and shallow, s
Explore →Systematically compare interfaces, communication protocols and power/ground characteristics, then bench-test or simulate before final installation — confirm physical connectors, NMEA (0183, 2000) and seatalk compatibility, autopilot control inputs, data sentence requirements, and electrical load/voltage behaviour.
Explore →Plan the turn, move deliberately and in sequence, keep the boat balanced, trim sails smoothly and keep weight and rudder actions small so speed is preserved through both tacks and gybes.
Explore →Plan the crossing as a deliberate offshore passage with a chosen route that reduces exposure, a weather window that keeps wind, swell and fronts well offshore, and firm alternates and abort points — using up-to-date synoptic and high‑resolution marine forecasts plus local observations to time departure and arrival.
Explore →Keep the boat balanced by steering a consistent course for the sail trim and by moving crew weight fore/aft and side-to-side to control helm and reduce weather or lee helm. Upwind you aim for a slight weather helm and a heel that lets the sails work efficiently; downwind you flatten the boat a little, ease sheets to prevent luffing or accidental broaches, and shift weight aft as the apparent wind drops.
