A 55-mile coastal passage from Coffs Harbour to Yamba, New South Wales, completes the northbound run on a Prout Ltd. Snowgoose 37 Elite against the Great Eastern Current.▶ 1:11 Wind sits at 10 knots from behind for most of the leg, giving 5.5 knots boat speed, but conditions shift mid-passage: the wind clocks onto the beam at 15 degrees, the self-steering wind vane Nepi steers off course unnoticed, and the genoa's UV strip tears apart in the building chop.▶ 10:02 The mainsail is formally retired at passage end, with new sails waiting in Yamba.▶ 0:56 Entry to Yamba's river mouth proves the tensest moment — large breaking waves, strong run-off from recent rain, and a near-low-tide arrival force the crew to follow a converted trawler through the sketchy channel, timing entry roughly three hours after low tide.▶ 17:54 Once anchored, Adam applies KiwiGrip non-slip coating to the cockpit floor and sides at AU$169 a tin, learning mid-application that thinner coats produce better texture.▶ 27:09 A side trip covers Yamba Lighthouse (built 1955, replacing an 1880 original) and the Green and Blue Pools, a former volcanic-rock quarry that supplied stone for the Clarence River breakwaters.▶ 21:44 A flashback recounts removing a roughly one-metre boa constrictor from the mainsail cover while anchored in the Great Sandy Strait on their previous boat, Atlas.▶ 12:17 Timing a tidal bar entry at least one hour after low tide reduces wave height and run-off significantly.
