Hey everybody,

This whole web thing is new to me, but it seems it is all the rage for info....

I have been lucky enough to be invited onto a 45' cat leaving the east coast of Australia in the next few months. The skipper, although quite experienced as a sailor has not done major crossings. We are in the midst of discussions as to whether we should head for Africa, via the tropics...or South America... can anyone suggest a good source of information as to routes etc and timing... I am concerned we may end up in the cyclone zone if we head west across the top of Aus too late in the year...

Thanks...
