Storm Prep in the Roaring Forties (Severe Gale Inbound)
A severe gale is on its way towards us, we need to seek out shelter, a storm anchorage in the mountains where we can stern tie to the shore for protection. We’ve just arrived by sailboat in Tasmania’s southwest corner, Port Davey. A large pocket of pristine wilderness that is completely inaccessible by road.
