How about collaborating on a KML for Google Maps with the locations where people intend to be? Just an approximate address with no name if you interested but are concerned about security. I would guess we'd have the coast from Port Douglas to Cairns fairly well covered.
On the Mulligan Highway at around 16.2716° S 144.7159° E seems to be as far as you can get from the coast, still be on the centre line, and catch the whole eclipse. Assuming a clear eastern horizon, the sun will have just cleared it.
A bit closer to the coast than that, the Mulligan Highway at Mt Carbine 16.5302° S 145.1363° E
Do we have any FNQers who'd know those areas?
