Story about James and Mags before the breakdown. Jimmy (aka Sunburnt Superman) is an underground fitter in the mines and absolute tough nut + even bigger nutter. He had a big accident where the machinery holding up the underground structure that he was fixing snapped, collapsed, and crushed one arm to the size of chicken feet. A miracle recovery and now he’s back in the mines. Then Mags, out-of-control South African babe who travelled to study, met Jimmy on a blind double date. Now she lives the Australian dream happily ever after. How good! Looking for camp I switched to 4WD-low then heard a loud clunk, like a sack of tatters dropped on the kitchen island bench. Great. When Jimmy said “you’ve fully f***ed your yoke”, I thought he was trying to make a joke. I knew nothing about the drivetrain of a car, let alone yoke, uni-joints, CV-joints, transfer case, driveshaft, etc. They all just sound…erotic. Anyway, the rear driveshaft completely flopped out and shattered the yoke. For non-mechanical enthusiasts, no rear driveshaft means no rear wheel spin, no bueno amigo. We were so lucky to have James with us, otherwise we probably wouldn’t make it out of Fraser Island with only front 2-wheel drive, as we needed towing twice. Luck played a big part here. Divine intervention? 🤷🏽‍♂️ Lesson here is…remember to grease your shaft, especially when at the beach. #jeep #jeepwrangler #jeepwranglertj #rangerover #rangeroverclassic #landrover #australianroadtrip #roadtripaustralia #roadtrip #australia #queensland #outback #outbackaustralia #4wding #4wdaustralia #ontheroad #travel #adventure #capeyork #capeyorkpeninsula #dusty #reddirt #camp #camping #campinglife #campingaustralia #campingtrip #dreams #daydreaming #getouthere (at Fraser Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRBeTOiLxN0/?utm_medium=tumblr

STATE CLAIMS IN VIOLATION OF ARTICLE 4 (LOSC ARTICLE 7), Australia case

Australia's straight baseline system is one of the most striking examples of this particular pathology. Termed a "comprehensive" system by Australia, straight baselines have been established on all coasts of the mainland and Tasmania, the islands off the coasts of the states and the Northern Territory, and other islands off the coast of Queensland. In some areas, the coastline meets the deeply indented or island fringe tests; in the majority of areas, it does not. For example, the northwest coast of the Cape York Peninsula fronting the Coral Sea presents a series of undulations in a relatively smooth coastline (see Fig. 5.9). Under a strict interpretation of the deeply indented test, a coast like this cannot be characterized as deeply indented or cut-into. None of the indentations are deep in the absolute sense nor do they occur so frequently that the coast has a "cut into" appearance. Nor is this area of coastline "fringed" with islands in the immediate vicinity. Yet, baselines have been used in this locality to internalize large areas of previously territorial waters and to territor-ialize theretofore high seas. Even if the coast met the geographic tests in this area, the basepoints selected enclose waters not "sufficiently closely linked to the land domain to be subject to the regime of internal waters," as required under Article 4(2) (LOSC Article 7(3)). Although the length of baseline segments is relatively short, Australia nonetheless increases the area of continental shelf and exclusive economic zone it claims by approximately 7700 square nautical miles because of the location of these baselines, as illustrated in the striated area in Fig. 5.9.

If you've missed my recent FB/Insta stories, this is where I've been. For the last 2 weeks I've joined my bro @stepoutsidemate on his 14 day @cockatours tour to the Tip of Australia, through Cape York - one of our country's last wild frontiers, saturated with a diverse history, unique culture and endemic wildlife. This photo was taken at one of my favourite places in the world... Seisia jetty, in the Northern Peninsula Area, Cape York. It's normal for kids to jump of the jetty here, definitely also home to huge crocs, sharks and well-fed groper. I'm now in Davies Creek NP area for the nest week, on a wildlife survey project.

Top of the morning to you from the top of Australia! Cape York @bmwmotorradaus #capeyorkpeninsula #capeyork #bmw #gs #r1200gs (at The Tip Of Australia)

Between the viscous fan trouble, we managed to do a short camp overlooking Duranbah Beach, Tweed Heads. Funnily, there’s a line on the map and ground there that marks the border of NSW and QLD. With border closures this was sketchy, there’s no strict policing since that ‘line’ is also a grey jurisdictional area, the state government powers sort of overlaps. Although the authorities came to check, they can’t legally fine you. Ha! So, a few glorious mornings waking up to the sunrise, coffeeing, reading, skating, beering, surf and slothing around gorgeous Coolangatta beaches was pure bliss. Henri even managed to get 5-seconds of fame of his monotone “we planned to travel Australia, so we had to cross the borders before it closed” on ABC News primetime. An old local fart on his dirt bike wasn’t impressed but, good thing Zila had a go. 📸 @jesse.jpg #jeep #jeepwrangler #jeepwranglertj #rangerover #rangeroverclassic #landrover #australianroadtrip #roadtripaustralia #roadtrip #australia #queensland #outback #outbackaustralia #4wding #4wdaustralia #ontheroad #travel #adventure #capeyork #capeyorkpeninsula #dusty #reddirt #camp #camping #campinglife #campingaustralia #campingtrip #dreams #daydreaming #getouthere https://www.instagram.com/p/CRjAcL1LJlB/?utm_medium=tumblr

Let’s rewind. We were travelling around the Brisbane area and found the engine kept overheating. Turns out the viscous fan clutch was toast. Every time we stopped at a red light the engine temperature gauge would creep up pushing over 110 degrees, and so did my anxiety. We kept driving around to Gold Coast and back with it, this risked blowing the head gaskets in the engine, which would have cost $$$$, anyway it survived another day. At one point in the Gold Coast the engine started steaming up, so I stopped on the side of a highway and added water to the radiator. Then driving off, a few bags fell out of the back of the car as I forgot to close the boot. Peak in the rear mirror, cars zooming towards us fresh off the green light. Panicked, I reversed quick to the curb. Checking the bags, my laptop bag was smack bang under those 33-inch tyres. The only thing that came unscathed was my multitrack recorder (well done Zoom). I got a new viscous fan and Endak insisted on helping me chuck it on (he said it was going to be easy, classic Endak). So, we parked Tristan into my cousin’s apartment and took a solid 3 hours throwing spanners and chasing tools from Bunnings in the rain. Seriously, what better thing could you possibly be doing in the rain than a coupla blokes trying to figure out how to remove a reverse threaded American viscous fan? It’s a Heep Jeep type of love darling. Thank you @endakhudson.adventure and @henriking__ for your help and Jesse for moral support and capturing moments, as usual. 📸 @jesse.jpg #jeep #jeepwrangler #jeepwranglertj #rangerover #rangeroverclassic #landrover #australianroadtrip #roadtripaustralia #roadtrip #australia #queensland #outback #outbackaustralia #4wding #4wdaustralia #ontheroad #travel #adventure #capeyork #capeyorkpeninsula #dusty #reddirt #camp #camping #campinglife #campingaustralia #campingtrip #dreams #daydreaming #getouthere https://www.instagram.com/p/CRgHuJDLOPs/?utm_medium=tumblr

The freedom of driving through boundless pristine beaches while listening to the sound of chirping birds, crashing waves and a straight piped 4.0L inline-6 engine….a therapeutic and liberating feeling… 📸 @jesse.jpg #jeep #jeepwrangler #jeepwranglertj #rangerover #rangeroverclassic #landrover #australianroadtrip #roadtripaustralia #roadtrip #australia #queensland #outback #outbackaustralia #4wding #4wdaustralia #ontheroad #travel #adventure #capeyork #capeyorkpeninsula #dusty #reddirt #camp #camping #campinglife #campingaustralia #campingtrip #dreams #daydreaming #getouthere (at Fraser Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/CROhZQ8r3vO/?utm_medium=tumblr

[Fast forward back to Fraser Island]. Some of the best things about travel (and life), besides seeing nature’s beauty, really is the people you meet and sharing stories or experiences. When Endak and Henri left Fraser, Jesse and I met this rad couple, Jimmy and Mags. I went to the toilet, came back and Jesse was having a yarn with them who parked next to us. Getting along, Jimmy brags about his ute set up. He customised an old fridge esky and turned it into a 10L keg with fresh home brew straight on tap, with a bloody baby BBQ next to it! Two schooners later at the car park, we said eff it lets wheel and camp together cos I’ve got a lamb shoulder and rum! The next few days were good fun, laughs and a more Jeep dramas! #jeep #jeepwrangler #jeepwranglertj #rangerover #rangeroverclassic #landrover #australianroadtrip #roadtripaustralia #roadtrip #australia #queensland #outback #outbackaustralia #4wding #4wdaustralia #ontheroad #travel #adventure #capeyork #capeyorkpeninsula #dusty #reddirt #camping #campinglife #campingaustralia #campingtrip #getouthere (at Fraser Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ_FLSsr4YR/?utm_medium=tumblr

(3/3) After a frustrating morning, we originally planned to find a camp spot early and call it a day. After driving around, we met a few local 18-year-old petrol heads with a 3-inch lift Nissan GQ Patrol. Impressed by our set-up they said, “oh yeah, we’ll show you around to a few local spots and show you some tracks if you want”. Rad! I left my motorbike rack in the bushes to go wheel. Everything went from miserable to “best day ever!” type. It was one of the most memorable days of the trip. Adrenaline was through the roof. Tristan got bogged, Rodney got a few engine and body niggles after a long steep rocky climb, Tristan nearly tipped sideways down a 45-degree boulder hill, Jesse got an extra ticket to living life after Endak tried to run him over (watch video). Best and funniest part, we saw the loosest bogan – 6’5 gym junkie, clean shaved rude head with a mullet down to his back wearing a singlet, driving a 5-inch lifted, 37-inch tyre Nissan GQ Patrol, belting out Accadacca, all by himself grinning he asked, “oi, fuck! That hill’s loose aye?! Where does this go?” …. “Not sure mate” Off redlining the car he goes. The picture together on top of the hill is a rare one with all of us in it (taken by my long-gone selfie stick). We look super happy. But as we know it, with all good things comes bad. Remember the motorbike rack? Yeah, well someone stole it after. #jeep #jeepwrangler #jeepwranglertj #rangerover #rangeroverclassic #landrover #australianroadtrip #roadtripaustralia #roadtrip #australia #queensland #outback #outbackaustralia #4wding #4wdaustralia #ontheroad #travel #adventure #capeyork #capeyorkpeninsula #dusty #reddirt #camping #campinglife #campingaustralia #campingtrip #getouthere (at Glass House Mountains, Queensland, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ62JMjrsop/?utm_medium=tumblr
