Well I never knew they had to rework those cables to remove excess vibes..
The ANZAC Bridge is the longest span cable-stayed bridge in Australia. The bridge is 32.2 metres (106 ft) wide and the main span is 345 metres (1,132 ft) long. The reinforced concrete pylons are 120 metres (390 ft) high and support the deck by two planes of stay cables. Initially the stay cables were plagued by vibrations which have since been resolved by the addition of thin stabilising cables between the stay cables.

Pilatus PC-3 is the predecessor to the PC-7 and PC-9 aircraft, all very fine aircraft from a company that imo, makes quality aircraft.

Recently found a nice little entry way onto this very long beach, its a great location where you can quite often be the only one on the whole beach, a real nice change. Each end has some great locations for seascapes.
Pretty intense location with plenty of compositions and plenty of history. I never realised, but there was once (1940s) a anti-sub net placed all the way across the gap between south and north heads. This caught one of the Japanese 'midget subs' in the 'Attack on Sydney Harbour' which then proceeded to self -destruct with those on board – very interesting
Gerroa actually has some interesting history, aviation history at that, Charles Kingsford Smith, yeah that dude who Sydney's Mascot domestic/international airport is named after! Sir Charles piloted the first commercial flight between Australia and New Zealand and took off from this very beach on the footstep of Gerroa, Seven Mile Beach. Clearly they were not thinking about long term corrosion eh?
This location is stunning and the place would be a super place to visit on the off holiday season, its also not a bad old windsurfing beach too.

Not a bad little beach, easily accessible and has some nice rock features, the rock is quite different to the southern parts of NSW, i think its like a conglomerate rock rather than the typically all black rock, yep thats a technical term 😉
Grants beach is just north of North Haven.
Tide action can be found here..

"Born in Warwickshire, Will grew up in the Suffolk countryside and spent several years in London and Glasgow before moving to Sydney, Australia. His grandfather, Norman Sillman, is a sculptor so he had easy access to modern and classical art and art theory when he was growing up. His official art training consists of Ravensbourne College of Art, Wimbledon School of Art and Glasgow School of Art. Most of his work, if pigeon-holed, is either semi-figurative or conceptual. His cast concrete works that appear on city streets are poignant and clever."
