South West Cape

A flashback to 1997 when Laurie Ford, Grant Hyland and I did a two week trip from Cockle Creek to Maatsuyker Island, Port Davey and Bathurst Harbour. One of the most challenging and interesting part of that trip was the rounding of South West Cape. This rocky spine represents a significant challenge to sea kayakers pointing deep into the Southern Ocean and home of incessant winds and huge waves. We were lucky both times we had to round the cape as the weather was quite moderate for this area.

Jeff you may like a book: South Sea Vagabonds by J.W.Wray. A New Zealanders in the 1930's who build and sailed his yacht around the South Pacific from Auckland. Interesting because the islands are unspoiled prior to the Second World War. Enjoy.
