Just wondering what the locals thoughts are on the forecast for Botany this weekend?

I'm coming over for the slalom racing and only really want to bring 2 boards and 4 sails to reduce excess baggage. I have 9.0, 7.7, 7.0, 6.4, 5.8 & 5.2 sails and 124L, 110L, 89L & 79L boards to choose from. If its not going to be over 20knots then I probably won't use the 89L nor anything smaller than 6.4

Some where in here is the answer: looks like everything from 5-25 knots N-W-S and back to N.

HI Gareth,

Looks like a bit of a light one so go big if anything. If you need a smaller sail around 6.2 if it blows up I have a spare used RS Racing in store that you can borrow.

See you soon,

Sam.

Thanks Sam, I think I'll bring the 124 and 110, if it blows I'll put a smaller fin in and hold on!

Looking forward to some warmer weather, it's been snowing for the last day and a half in Dunedin.
