Returned safe from big rock, the trip over was fine the sea was flat calm although it started pouring with rain halfway over.
We landed and climbed up to our setup point, a group of old workshops with most of the roof missing (great in the rain) we set up 2 radio stations and managed to operate successfully for around 3 hours when the skipper of our boat phoned across telling us a force 6 was about to spring up and he was coming to get us immediately, it was then panic stations to pack up equipment in a hurry and return down to the jetty with all our gear.
By then the storm was in full flight we took 45 minutes to load the boat in a 6 foot swell and get ourselves on.
The trip back was bad very very bad I have not often been truly terrified in my life but on this occasion you bet I was i thought that the boat was a gonner on several big waves, but we made it and despite the weather and the terror I throughly enjoyed the challenge. I would have liked more time to operate the radio stations though as we were run of our feet with people trying to contact us.
I'll post some pics later.

Cheers
