green island out off cairns.

if you have plenty of cash then lizard island

if you are budget starved then maybe mackay or 1770 or somewhere from central qld and north.

if you want waves maybe head to tassie.

I will be in Sydney for a few weeks, will have a FSW and maybe a waveboard, and sails 4.2 thru 6.5.

Maybe I will be lucky and there will be plenty of southerlies in Botany Bay, but was thinking of taking a trip or trips (cheap midweek), to somewhere reliably windy?

Suggestions for that time of year? Water temps doesn't phase me,

Thanks for all this info, free sailing time seems to be shrinking...

Looks like melbourne is cheapest for midweek getaway...
Any recommendations good places to sail in port phillip bay. Or is it worth driving a couple of hours.

Will be sailing on my own so nothing too narly, just somewhere easy for flat water, bump and jump sailing. 100L FSW and smaller waveboard, largest sail 6.5

I wouldn't try mackay if the biggest you have is a 6m, So far this winter it's been a lot of formula sailing, but then again winter is generally the windy season here....
