To do any long distance cruising around here we require more range. Heading west across the Australian Bight, requires over 700 NM of cruising against the prevailing wind between fuel stops. (Ceduna to Esperance). Safe achorages are in short supply as well. Some long distance cruisers organise a fuel cache to be brought into a remote semi-accessible beach by 4WD along the way.
The remoteness here has its challenges, but plenty of advantages too.
