Predictwind, a sophisticated means of getting the very best in wind forecasts has agreed to provide us with their latest version of forecasting software http://forecast.predictwind.com. The weather is critical in a Bass Strait crossing and Predictwind will add another layer of safety to our paddle.
Also, Karel Vissel of http://www.kayakweather.com will be providing twice daily forecasts. With the excellent Bureau of Meteorology forecasts, Predictwind and Karel's forecasts we should be able to approach the crossing with the best in weather information.
Another tool at our disposal will be the fantastic tidal and current information available from Tidetech. http://www.tidetech.org This software gives tidal current direction and speed at any point every half hour in Bass Strait up to 4 days ahead. Absolutely invaluable.
