Adelaide - 05 takeoff - flight distance before turning

At Adelaide, aircraft departing on 05 travel a considerable distance out to sea before turning. I understand that distance is/was 5 NM.

With the revised paths now operating for landing on 05, has there been a change to the outbound distance?

I ask because I saw a B737 turn northerly fairly soon after passing over the shoreline the other day

Regards
