- Overcast, dark and gloomy here in Noosa this morning. Rain early on, clearing around daybreak. A light 2 to 4 knot westerly breeze blowing at the river mouth. A long, sloppy low tide swell on the bar. BOM forecast is for northerly winds 10 to 15 knots. Seas: Below 1 metre. Swell: Easterly around 1 metre. Filmed between 6.15am and 7.00am which was either side of a 0.46m low tide. Background Music: 'Your Suggestions'... by Unicorn Heads.
I never thought watching boats crossing a sketchy bar would be so relaxing
Those Noosa cats ride so well
Fantastic footage
Those rowers rock 🤘
Always well presented 😁
Those half wits at USA Haulover could learn a lot from these guys. Respect for reading the waves and position boat/ throttle🎉🎉🎉
Did 70kms offshore mooloolaba yesterday, fair to say it wasnt favourable 😂 some nice flameys tho 🤌
There is a need to balance the south to north sand deposition at the mouth with the Noosa River 's capacity to keep a channel open. There must be a formula to reach a level whereby the outflow will ensure a deep enough channel to avoid the creation of a bar. Theoretically of course......over to the bureaucrats.
The Cruise Craft is bow heavy, not good 3:27
@@gypana thats exactly what we need crossing the bar. It doesnt handle as good as edencraft but better than tinny boats
@@kirk2632 I'm not knocking the boat, Cruise Crafts are good boats but he's got to much weight in the cabin...the bow sprit is ploughing into the water with a bit slop not good.
@@gypana could be the v shape?
I noticed that too when he was pretty much at idle speed. Deep v hull just need a touch of throttle and trim up to get the bow up.
Move your crew back
Some boats power through those breakers and some kinda roll over them.
What’s the best way to attempt a bar crossing for a first timer ?
I’m down near foster and the bar looks a lot cleaner than Noosa.
Great drone work by the way mate 🤙
Go talk to your local proffesional fisherman. They will have an awful lot of experience and knowledge regarding bar crossing. Go to your local Volunteer Marine rescue or water police. They will tell you of the state regulations regarding the safety requirements for crossing bars. IE mandatory wearing of life jackets when entering or leaving a bar crossing. Talk to other boaters including cruising yachties. There are times that are best for crossing bars IE always on a rising tide and preferably in the last half of a rising tide. Learn to read weather and tide charts. Way to much to tell you on here but there is a huge amount of information on the web and in books.
go out first when its calm.
Set a low limit as to the conditions you will approach as you learn
Keep to that limit don't push it because you are all hyped up to get out ,
As you gain experience you can approach more challenging conditions.
Remember There is always that set that is far bigger than you expect, even a mild day can turn challenging in an instant .
Before you cross spend time evaluating conditions, Check critical equipment, bilge pump, fuel, battery, safety equipment., ,movable objects secure , life jackets and bilge pump on. do not forget to radio your intentions .

Sell your boat and take up knitting. It’s safer, cheaper a lot more comfortable and not nearly as boring as fishing.
Amazing how some hulls dont stack up against other hulls in this situation. Some hulls do better than others...
Cats are always the go for bar crossing
Looking a tad moody...
Yeah. A bit lumpy.😮
All the money spent on Noosa bar ,mother nature winning there some much for the corner coffee poffs,in ten years you’ll need a lift to hit the open water ,lol
Not good, difficult to across
Not a lifejacket in sight. lol a waste of maritime resources
