Hi all,
 
At Lancelin now. Very tiring sail up. Held full sail all day from Rottnest. Sea really too big for this size boat, without getting plenty onboard. Made it in good time though.
 
The bike did fit after stowing gear under bunk, and taking wheels off.

Folding bike?? Met a cruiser who used to buy old mountain bikes at garage
sales, cut them in half vertically for stowing, then reassemble with a piece
of tubing as a sleeve and some wingnuts when he got to port.

Jeez, how could I have possibly neglected to make the cabin big enough to fit
a bike in?

Enjoy the sail to Lancelin, hope you clean up the competition.

regards,

Rob

G'Day,

Good run back to Mandurah.
Trying for Lancelin for boggie boarding comp on Sunday.
Try to work out some storage /living arrangements. Might leave the bike
behind this time - let a fair bit of water in through the ajar hatch, thus
enjoying wet blankets at night. The bike can fit with wheels removered, but
its just awkward stowing. Should fit nicely into a harry double berth space.
That's the only negative thing to say on Elementarry, is where to put the
bike.

G'day,
Congratulations, you have now done more offshore /coastal miles in a
harryproa than anyone else! 250 kms Perth to Dunsborough. Very impressive.

Could we have some more details on weather, sea state, speed, handling
etc, please.

Regards,

Rob
