a few years back NSW fisheries spent some of our licence money on a FAD a mile or so out from Point Perpendicular. A bit later they shifted it and changed the type. Next it was removed. The Dept of Primary Industries site, and the fisheries site said it was going to be replaced in Nov 05. Still no info on it being put back available on the web site.
I'm stating to feel deprived, even though I could only go out to it on calm days. Plus I've just paid for my 3 year licence and the price has gone up too!

Anyone know whether it is going to appear by Christmas Eve?

because you blokes wouldn't tell me the answer to my question, I emailed the D of PI and asked them the same question.
The answer was along the following lines:

Weather permitting the Jervis Bay FAD is scheduled to be deployed in the next week. As soon as the device is in the water, the GPS coordinates will appear on the FADs webpage.
