If there is wind tomorrow from the south as predicted where are you going to sail at?

Early session at Marmong for me because it's close to home and I don't have a lot of time. Should be some nice swell.

Valentine will be good too, and if you have a weed fin there will be plenty of sailors going fast at Canton Beach at Toukley. Might also be a few out at Sunshine which is nice in a southerly.

Should be a great day!

If a 7m is heavy for you how do you think the 7.2m NX is for me....still gets me planing in 10-15kts so I'll put up with it.
