Also did port to scarbs, don't know if it was all time. There were definitely some big steep runners out there but they didn't seem to be linking up like usual.


What time did you start Cam?. We did not hit the water until 3.45 and got stronger and more south as we went. You know did the big guy, hard to exite but he was frothing.

Damn I wish I wasn't so addicted to kiting it looked like awesome DW SUP conditions out there this arvo, but I can't do two things at the same time.

We started just after 2. Like you guys the run took just under 1:30 with a brief stop off swanny to rescue a guy on a ski who was in all sorts and couldn't get in his ski. Driving home our end of the coast was looking pretty inviting.

What a belter of a run !! Perfect wind direction, plenty of big, long runners, and nice cold beers thanks to Krankiman at the finish. Spotted Hilly and Twimby blasting off from Port just before the main group - and could tell it was going to be on right from the start.
Plenty of new faces, and a total of 15 starters. Definitely one of the best runs of the season, if not THE best so far.
Thanks to Luke for bringing his trailer - a huge help !
Can't wait for next weekend, stay tuned.

Ahhh, the Doctor is now a dark, distant memory.
