Has anyone sailed Kyeemah yesterday or lately with the flotilla and tubes in the way?
Looks hardly possible even in a southerly.
Just as well Feb/March has been windless.Anyone know if the work will be completed by next summer?
We had the usual size midweek crowd on Monday Tuesday and Wednesday. What you'll find has happened with the silt curtain and so forth is that the water surface has been considerably flattened. So if you just want to go back and forth at speed, it's actually pretty good.
I haven't noticed what effect the snake to the south has had on the southerly chop, but if the forecast is right, we'll find out on Friday.
They have put a floating rope 20m off the beach all the way from Kyeemagh pool to the pool at the Novotel... Basically you can not sail there anymore. You will have to drive a few KM's down the road to Ramsgate Beach i guess?
Not happy![]()
my guess is they didn't realize so many people would be sailing at this spot. it's probably an insurance issue. The easiest way to get rid of people windsurfing simply put up more obstacles.
How thick is the rope? Not that I am suggesting for anyone to say "have a very sharp fin"...
Any ideas how long those goons are going to be digging there?
sun 10 am at sandringham will be low tide so the sand bar will be poking its nose out.
good time to get the speed boards out :)
Just got home from my drive around all the possible spots along Grand Parade Friday arvo. From what I saw the best spot could be the first carpark as you drive south from the main shopping centre of Brighton, there is plenty of parking and easy access to the beach. A few kite surfers there and a sea wall protruding from the beach but not high enough to affect the wind.
I should have stayed there a while cause the wind picked up according to SB.
I'm going to give La Perouse a go on Sunday. Should be a pretty clean wind and I feel like some bump and jump action.
About 10 or so ppl turned up for sail this arvo down at st georges yaght club - was a bit patchy at times but some of thebigger gusts were awesome. At least two people managed to break fins (no idea how since was in deep water)
GPS runs early on were showing about 25-28 knots but wind picked up later so not surprised if a few ppl clocked higher.
Most are plannig to be back down there 10 am sunday and looks like we might get even more wind.

why dont they just go out and buy a trampoline,looks like the same thing to me
This is Tim before he lost his fin
And Mike (Sheartip) having a go
and also Dave (Katapault)
A good day
I think the beach up near old control tower, north of kyeemagh, may be the go for Sat.
Tim, put up the google screen shot of your runs from there![]()
