It's down for some reason. Maybe when they replace it they can calibrate it to be 5 knots less so we don't always get out hopes up and find out its light.

And when they are done they can move north to Knobbies and recalibrate it. They said it peaked at 25knots today, pigs a***!, it was at least 5 knots stronger.

30 Knots really? I went out just after 2pm and had a 5.2 up. I felt it was 5 knots less. What did you have on Brewman?

Are you having a go at my puny skills
I had boardshorts on

I battled to hold down a 4.7 NP wave sail. I did notice everyone else, including you had 5m+ sails maybe I need to eat more wheeties.

Take no notice of the struck out post, brainfade on my prt for some reason I thought I was replying to Byron

I was at birdi well/over powered on a 4.6, so guessing above 30 knots.

It blew all the waves away.
