Logistically and legally, this is barely or not possible under the current international circumstances but why no PCR test? If you have Covid , let it run its course and then return to Oz by air.
The “inventor” of the PCR was certainly a colourful character, more of a Timothy Leary than an Alexander Fleming. Click image for larger version

Re: Captain or Boat Wanted: Vietnam or Mexico to Cairns Australia

Let’s see:

Vietnam to Darwin: call it 2500 nm through multiple jurisdictions (all of which won’t allow you to land). Also through pirate alley if you want the shortest trip. Let’s say 20 days in transit.
However, if the boat is not already in Vietnam you have to factor in getting there before you even start.

Mexico to Brisbane: 6666.66 nm (The Devil’s number twice!). Let’s say 50 days. Lots of nothing until you get to the South Pacific (who also don’t want you).
This doesn’t include all the other issues raised above about actually getting to Mexico.

Or you could take a direct flight.

Either way, you’ll get to spend two weeks in quarantine (and do some COVID tests).
Plus the high likelihood of fines and/or gaol if you choose the wrong answer.

Not sure you’ll get a lot of serious responses.

Some folks think that emulation is the most sincere form of flattery, Stu, so IMO no apology needed in the first case, and I reckon the misspelling will be forgiven in light of the first statement!

Go Wottie!

IIRC there have actually been some posts like this that later found their way into the news. One guy who posted here and then later stole a boat and did a parental kidnapping of his young kids.
