It was suppose to be my day off - but the boss (office) has called me in for a 2:30 meeting
If its blowing a westerly as strong as Seabreeze predicts, the Central Coast lakes will be much better to sail. Consistent winds with longer runs.
IM GOING TO CRACK 40 TOMOZ .. BUT NOT AT THE LAKE ;-)
SANDI LOOKS F ING ORSUM TO ME YEEEEEOOOOOWWW !!!
narrabeen hey... mmm. i got the day off. and 4.2m . not sure where to go . might shoot down the coast somewhere. shoalhaven anyone??
If you're going south check Lake Illawarra. 5 minutes off the freeway down Northcliff drive. Launch from Illawarra yacht club. 2nd yacht club on the right. Sail 1 NM south, thru the weed. You'll see us at the sandbar on the horizon. Early birds are down there already, 5.4 weather is the report.
When I went past at 6:30 this morning on way to work it was NW and gusty as.
Whitecaps galore but on eastern end near Wimbledon island.
Should swing west and honk, go Tivo Man!!!!!!!!!!!!
Water level is fair bit higher due to rain but strip is still pretty flat.
Save us some wind for this arvo Ads!!!
hey guys- just arrived from qld for a few weeks- anywhere to sail around the Botany Bay area in a westerly? any advice would be greatly appreciated.
cheers

20/10:00am - W 33 41
20/09:45am - W 30 40
20/09:30am - W 29 37
choppy as hell - should have taken my wave board / 4.7
Just got a report from Lake Dangerous. One of the boys on a 5.0 JUST hanging on. Couple of others on 4.7. Gusts from 5-35 knots from NW-W-SW and back again.
A 5.5 was tried and got smashed.
39 knot gust recorded at airport.
La Perouse - only a couple of kms from Kurell so I'm sure the wind's the same - but I'm flying on a 4.0. Only me left here now so hope nothing breaks when I'm in the shipping lane between the heads...
How much did you miss by? New Lake Illawarra record awaiting confirmation. I suppose we'll let you back.
Zippy, the carparks at the western end of Narrabeen lake are notorious for 'single' male activity. It's not just night, afternoon is popular - gross!
They didn't call it Deep Cream Reserve for nothing!!
I know some cops and they have seen plenty in the trees. Think ugly thoughts. EEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRR
thanks for the invite ian k, ended up at paradise beach on st georges basin.. i remember this place used to be awesome in westerlys. and it still is, 4 hours sailing with my 4.2 from the 90s.... what an unreal day!!!. westerlys are really consistent down there. i think cause of Bungonia Gorge (the biggest in Oz) to the west funnels them really well, Jervis Bay looked awesome and flat to(plantation pt would of been epic), though blowing straight out the heads !!!
