He’s off and paddling, leaving this morning from Pt Welshpool Victoria. Mal  had strong head winds this morning with gusts up to 35kn (about 65km/hr). He decided to move out of the Port Welshpool area and he is now camped on the beach at Biddie Cove ready to make a run down the coast when the weather gets better.
If you paste this location into Google Earth you can just make him out on the beach waving.
