Gday mate,
just got home, there is a shack, u plug your generator in the back and it runs the lights and power points in side.
plenty of tables so dont waste space in the ute bringing any.
the rain water tanks are currently full but dont know how they will be by may.

Swell was too big for the
Swell was too big for the west side cliffs and the wind was wrong for balooning but we managed baldies, spangies, parrotfish and flag from 50cent reef.
didnt see too many noahs .
smashed the flathead, gummys and whiting camping on the barge side.
wasnt too bad for 3 days.

Track was fine, bit
Track was fine, bit corregated on the 4wd part but that happened over the few days we were on the island because it was perfect on the way in. Too many people dont let the trailer tyres down.
new barge is awesome, alot bigger so u dont have to worry about getting close to the sides.
we caught everything on the reefs with unweighted squid, have to have that drag tight though beacause they head straight back for their holes.
