Yes, we should have boarded in Brisbane for this world cruise. We are now flying down to Sydney on Monday 29th. We will be boarding on the 30th. We then have a 112 day world cruise.

Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted April 25 #7 Share Posted April 25 It's going to be an interesting run across to Fremantle. We have 4 days 15.25 hours to get there by the scheduled arrival time, including getting in and out of the harbours. It's 2140 nautical miles between the two ports. If Coral sustains a steady 20 knots it will take 4 days 11 hours. We are crossing two of Australia's most notorious seas - Bass Strait and the Great Australian Bight. Hopefully the weather and sea gods will be kind to us but if not I've got a good supply of seasickness meds! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually more concerned with reaching Fremantle on time than the actual crossing. We're meeting up with friends for lunch. We missed catching up with them last time we were in Fremantle as we were stuck in isolation as I had Covid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted April 26 #20 Share Posted April 26 I just had a look at the wave predictions. It looks promising for the Tasman crossing, Bass Strait, and probably the Great Australian Bight as well. However we might just catch the edge of 3 metre seas leaving Sydney Harbour but those are moving north so we'll be out of their influence quite quickly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colour me very 💚 Who'd have thought way back at the beginning of 2014 when we were discussing cruising on the old Amazon forums, and you recommended Cruise Critic to me, that we'd be going on a world cruise! 😊 I'm not sure I've got my head fully around the cruise either and we're embarking on Tuesday! 🤔😲🤣 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
