A 90-mile coastal passage from Yamba to Southport, Queensland, delivers Adam and Luke to a sailmaker who alters their headsails and mainsail to correct sizing errors from an online order.1:18 The overnight run in 25-knot southeast winds and 2.4-metre swells surfs the boat to 14.6 knots on the steepest waves; the crew runs on genoa alone for safety and slows to four knots to avoid arriving before the Southport bar opens at dawn.0:17 Navionics GPS tracks erratically through the night.9:53 A brief stop at Byron Bay proves too swell-exposed to anchor comfortably, so they press on.5:22 At Southport, sailmaker Joel and his colleague Angus shorten both headsails by trimming from the head — preserving leech support — and re-apply UV strip webbing; the mainsail headboard is removed and the curve faired down.14:46 The industrial sewing machine runs on compressed air and costs A$25,000.17:52 Turnaround is under one day.19:43 The altered genoa fits correctly on the first hoist, though a gap in the UV cover prompts a same-day return visit.20:30 Joel notes that measurement errors on online sail-order forms are common and not the buyer's fault.16:45 Entering Southport on a flood tide eases the bar crossing; the crew explicitly warns the bar would be dangerous on an outgoing tide.13:04
