  9. You must Respect Nature, and with Experience you always look at what she Tells you: Scrolls on the water ,Wind,Clouds,Feel the currents direction and not least look at the Wave pattern. and to be truthful It takes a lot of years to gain the Knoll age . and not least read & watch the weather forecast what patterns in the other states V.I.C and Q.L.D is days before your trip (for storms warnings ) I find it Usually takes 3-4 days to reach Sydney (and is a no go) . and I find a great Help talk to the Old timers and heed to their advise & Knoll age . I remember ones I was at Bellambi Boat ramp launching 16,5 Fibber Glass (Heavy Boat) this Gentleman walked past and we took time out had a Chat about a lot of things about the area. when we got back in the afternoon there was bit of a surge also (Boat Ramp has Aluminium Grid) slippery as, for a rear Drive Ute. Tyres spinning & spinning No traction then having two blokes stand on the the rear of car with jumping motion so I could get some traction I barely got out but managed with a lot cursing & swearing. the Old Timer walked past we got talking again he saw that I had Trouble getting out. he said he see at least two cars a year with their head lights in the water. he said I don't tell everyone or anyone this. and I took his advice: get TWO hessian bags sow the ends together keep it in your car use them when you need traction on boat ramps with heaps of alga on low tide or aluminium grates and you should be right. and I proved it ones at tunks park low tide. even the council boys likes having lunch in the park . came over wanted to know how I got out, as they usually have their break there and always help someone out and gain free drink for after work. and now I always have a few Hessian bag in the boot just in case. ( Take note what the Old Timers has to say they do have a lot of knoll age they do like to pass it on to people who listen. Cheers
