Thanks Norm

Hi Norm Pete from Jacobs Well when you get there be cautious of crocks I confronted one in the kayaks on the north side 2 years ago and when fishing on dusk caught shark after shark then gave upfishing you lucky bugger wish I was there

As they say , ' it's not always smooth sailing '. You can't deter me , Norm . When we're kids we paid for thrills at country shows in side show alley , just like this ride . Although 2mins as opposed to 5-8hrs. However, money invested , you're getting your moneys worth. 🦘🇭🇲👍

well done. from a crusty old diesel mechanic. Just recently found your channel. Looking forward to catching up

Mon looks like she liked the decision to move 🎉

Well the wind & rain isn't helping here on the Gold Coast tonight. Swinging around the anchor chain like a merry-go-round

you shoudl upload the full fireworks show looked great

Good morning captain enjoy your café

Hey Norm I have just recently come across your channel and have been hooked ever since. I’m in the process of doing up a boat to cruise the east coast of Australia like you are. Your information in invaluable. Thanks very much much

Sound stuff Norm, we all need reminding of it. One thing you can do is choose the best model and the worst then see how they converge. And we all know which way that goes. A word of caution when using Willy weather. I love that app but I found that as we were going into Musgrave, the tide forecast put the dunnies underwater by about a metre and a half. I contacted them and they replied pretty quickly, explaining that back then they were using Gladstone tides. If you use their app for tides click on the little 'i' on the bottom left corner to see about the data. Sourced from the BOM and ANTT.

Thanks Norm. You’ve just reinforced our rules. No fixed timeframes. We have the premium version of windy that we use in the computer- feed in your boat speed and we’ve found passage planning to be quite simple. If only the weather was actually what the models say!

Cheers Norm, great info for a newbie like myself.

Hey Norm, I don’t know if anyone else has pointed this out, but vid finishes at 12 minutes, then there’s about 4 minutes of black followed by a short repeat of the video at the end.

Good vid Norm and great spot on GK. Windy obviously is NOT taking any information from our meteorologists in Brisbane as they cannot get a day right if they tried! 😂 - the only job I know that pays for continued failed information. 🎉

Thanks for the video dude, useful info. 👍

Senior moment Normie? 😂

Great bumping into you both at GKI. It’d be interesting to hear how you find the radar on night passages.

Thanks Norm looking forward to catching up one day when we get out there

12 min story, 8 mins dead air, then repeats. Upload fail .

Check out ‘Watch it navigation system” which links all your exsisting raymaine system in to one overwatch system with alarms

Thanks Norm, I must have deleted Windy , maybe got it confused with PredictWind which is not very accurate for Australia I think, it’s back installed now, did you notice your video has a big gap then loops back to the start , a bit like staying in the cinema to watch the start of a good movie again 😃

That one way to upload a longer video 😂

Hey Norm It'd be good to see some coverage on the prevailing winds throughout the year especially on say the east coast of NSW & Qld - Cheers

Having the same tech as the big boys makes a difference, and not just in boating.

@Motor Sailing for Old Dudes Great Vid Norm very helpful I found Another useful App is zoom earth, where bom radar shows rain zoom earth shows the cloud to almost live times (10 minutes out I think)

Thx for the info however No info on choosing anchorages?

Wow , very noticeable the weight loss . Maybe camera angle. Love this episode content , especially seeing Mon doing the dream . Spurs me on with my goal , now 18months away. 🦘🇭🇲👍

Thanks Norm very interesting - looking forward to seeing the new radar etc in action. - Cheers

What a great episode, love the chart showing where you are at! Thanks for sharing! 😎🇦🇺

Love the content. I live in Arizona, USA. But you motivate me to sail someday

Did you ever go into Merimbula, I’d like to see someone try that shallow bar before I do 😀

What did you do wrong? Bit hard to square the boat up to a wave in time when it comes at you on angle like that isn't it?

Couldn’t agree more.

Need a funeral business with all thesevaxd deaths.

Stay upright to stay ahead of the devil. 🦘🇭🇲👍

Oh my,,,,pondering 😮😮😮

What happened to Carnivorous diet. Seen in your last video buying Just right breakfast cerial

Norman- you’re livin the dream!

hey Norm what was the cost of the hardware and ongoing costs for the RV starlink, sorry but cant find where you have talked about cost. Cheers Col

Thankyou

Hands down, Honda makes the best outboard, ATV, generator, motorcycle, and the list goes on…
