    Blue Hole, Caloundra, Passage 6 knots no wash

    I fish the blue hole at caloundra a fair bit in a small tinny at anchor. I'd say 1 in every 100 boats that pass me here are doing well in excess of 10 knots let alone 6, and at least 99% of them pass well within 12m of me sending big wash my way. This even though within a channel is a signed 6 knot no wash area due to the erosion on the bank of Bribie. Let alone those doing much greater than 6 knots with big wash close to my anchored boat. If you got a boat licence then you would know that the limit is 6 knts within 30m of an anchored vessel. And don't go rant on about anchoring in a channel,. It's a signed 6 knot zone.

    There is a newly carved channel that runs west of this point and the channel markers, so use that if you want to go full noise.

    Just sayin

    End rant.

    jeez that's a better percentage than I've ever experienced there... I've even had boats overtake me yelling that I'm too slow. Annoys the shyte out of me too.
    There are only two moments in time.... There's now, and there's too late.
