Sydney harbour - Hobart start

It's kind of busy on Sydney Harbour right now! This screenshot taken from our chartplotter/AIS a few seconds ago.

And these are just the ones that have AIS transponders! Looking around where we are right now (Store Bay, just north of the heads) I count approximately 60 boats (ones over about 4 tonnes) and there are about 6 AIS targets around us. Based on that, about 1 boat in 10 has a transponder.

Wish us luck!
