1st November 5pm Update – 3 Hours into the 2024 Melbourne to Devonport Race The fleet is settling into Bass Strait, enjoying flat seas and 15 knots from the south in what has been termed "peachy conditions." Leading the fleet are MRV and eXtasea, with the fleet staying just east of the rhumb line. In an interview at 4pm, Rod Smallman on Maverick predicted that those who pick the right time to tack may have the advantage, as they await a wind change later tonight. He went on to suggest that it could turn out to be a small boat race for handicap honors given the predicted conditions, though tactics will play a large part. The fleet is closely packed, with each tracker update giving everyone a chance at the handicap win. Keep an eye on the tracker https://race.bluewatertracks.com/2024-melbourne-to-devonport-rudder-cup and enjoy whilst we wait for the wind to change the interview with Rod Smallman here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKb4a8r4e7M
Spotted mid-snorkel: a cuttlefish gliding through the reef like something straight out of a sci-fi film. Graceful, curious, and full of personality, cuttlefish are one of the ocean’s most fascinating creatures, and seeing one in motion is pure underwater magic. It doesn’t flash colors or show off this time... it just moves with a kind of quiet beauty that makes you pause and forget the rest of the world. These are the moments that make snorkeling on our voyages unforgettable, not just the big wildlife, but the strange, subtle, and surreal. Here are some unique and fascinating cuttlefish facts - Masters of camouflage.Cuttlefish can change their color, texture, and even the shape of their bodies in less than a second to blend in with their surroundings, even though they're colorblind! - Built-in buoyancy control.They have a unique internal shell called a cuttlebone, which they use to control their buoyancy, like a built-in scuba tank. - Communication through their skin. They use patterns, pulses, and flashes of color to communicate, hunt, or attract mates, essentially using their skin as a dynamic display screen. ✨ Ready for your own ocean encounter?Come explore where the wild things drift. #Cuttlefish #SnorkelingAdventure #SailingEscape #UnderwaterMagic #OceanLife #EcoTravel #MarineEncounters #TravelDeeper #ExploreTheSea #WildAndFree #SlowTravel #NatureMoments #ReefLife #SailingWithPurpose
