I'm going on a whale watching trip for the other halfs 30th - I even got 15 mates to join us - on Saturday!! So you can thank me later if it's really windy ![]()
It looks pretty green doesn't it? ![]()
I can't remember the last time we've got green arrows for more than two days in a row, hopefully they stay green ![]()
Yeah, stop talking about it or we're gonna have green 'til friday and then 3 days of yellow including Monday public holiday....![]()
I haven't sailed for over a month so I wasn't going to jinx it. All fingers crossed it hangs in for the long weekend. ![]()
looks like the winds up at kurnell.
Might wander down this morning after work - ie about 10 am ![]()
Have the next 3 days off so hopefully will get some more fitness for the upcoming maui trip.
Wow that was an awesome westerly today.
Very consistant wind with only +- 5 knot gusts / holes.
Probably one of the nicest westerlys ive had in sydney for a long time.
Never dropped off the plane or got over powered on a 84 lt board with 5.3 sail.
Bit cold tho :(
If anyone is going to be out at La Perouse this afternoon, keep an eye out for a container ship leaving at around 2:30pm-3pm. I'm going for a little joy ride on it with the pilots and am taking my camera with 200mm lens. I will try and get some photos of you guys sailing.
Cheers

I got to LP at 3pm so must have just missed the boat, as it were. Could have been there earlier if I'd seen your post at lunchtime Laff - bugger. Are you sailing tomorrow btw? I've just joined your GPS team so it would be good to post a session...
Pity about the b rain..
Not much point in going down until it clears a bit - you cant see and its generally all over the place gust wise..![]()
was pretty full on today from mid
morning with 30 knts at times. I was overpowered on my 5.3. at least I felt I was
After not having a sail for over 6 weeks I've managed two days in a row, (Saturday and Sunday)
. I've found windsurfing muscles I forgot I had!
Certainly was bumpy yesterday at Kyeemah, towards the end of the sesion I found my that my rig didn't feel quite right (thought I was just getting knackered), but when I de- rigged I found that my mast track had slid all the way forward. All that poundig through the chop loosened things up.
I take my hat off to the guys using big free ride gear yesterday, it would of been a wild ride. I had my 78L board and could have gone smaller. In fact a smaller fin would have been nice....anyone have a 21/22 cm PB wave fin they want to get rid off?
Fingers crossed that it clears up a little for another sesion today!
