Anywhere to get away from the droves of tourists that invade my local area from the city.  Heck maybe its worth going to Perth as half the population must have left there.

Wed, 2012-11-07 17:12

I'll be doin the same Paul, might have to be a run before the ban is over though as I go to work on the 21st Dec I think.

Should try something different Paul, and go from Port Gregory to Wallabies then run down thru islands, back to gero, hitch up to get car. Thats my plan for next year!

Boat went straight through quarantine this morning, so I'll be down in 9 days to collect.

 land based in Rockingham for 2 weeks in the start/middle of January with maybe a sly cast in Albany, Kalbarri and Coral Bay during the trip. light stuff will be loaded up but i'm packing 2 bigger girls if anyone wants a deckie in Perth/Mandurah happy to chase anything and do what the skipper asks, dunno bout some oif southerners with your no beer rule but haha.

Maybe a 80 mile beach or Mack Islands in March if either hasn't been wiped off the earth by a cyclone. Monties in May first time in the boat and a week off in June with my Perth Buddies hitting the Reds, Sailies and Blacks, Squid and Crabs locally!
