Sydney - North

Looks like the missus is going to pike out of heading north from Sydney about mid to late March next year. I will miss her......
Plan is to get to the Whitsunday/Barrier Reef area and then decide to either continue arounds Oz, Luisades and then Solomons then on to NZ for summer or maybe and up and back. I am quite definite on that (unless I think of somewhere else to go).
I dive a bit, and so destinations will have some of that, otherwise I am pretty flexible.
Boat is a steelie, ketch, 42ft. Has been round the world once (not with me on board) extensive refit just complete and well equipped.
Looking for someone with some experience (ideally) and a passport.

I’d take you up on the offer, but I’ve got a feeling I might just end up following in your wake and catching up at a few anchorages along the way. Thanks for reminding me I need to re-new my passport!

To all that posted -

This trip is/has been modified considerably by things unanticipated (and unable to be ignored unfortunately)

Alan - I am away right now, but will call in the next few days.

If things change I will re-post.

Thanks to all for your interest
