Just a general call out / roll call
Who is up for the lake this coming holidays.
Camping at Elanda point.
Always a great season starter

I'll be there and will bring beginners gear for anybody that wants a go.

I've got plenty of beginner gear - it's all I sail these days . Small sails for kids also :-)

Cheers Jeff

I will try and get there but won't have much leave left, so probably a weekend or slightly longer.

Weekends would be good. September is getting warmer, right?

I hope will be warmer than today if it's cold there is always a taste of Tony's green ginger wine To help warm up

Yep usually wear my shorty wetsuit
Middle weekend probably best as some head home early on the Sunday at the end of the holidays

Looking like a good roll up

Cheers Jeff

I plan to get up there in the last week with at least 2 of my kids so would like to take you up on the offer if conditions OK. Will probably stay at boreen pt as the kids (and their dad) likes to have dinner at that great pub.
See you up there!

Speak to Rhonda at Boreen Point Real Estate Shannon. bpre.net.au/

Plenty of holiday houses in town, but off the top of my head, can't think of one with a fenced area.

Hi trimmer
I haven't had any experience with renting. I take a van to Elanda pt.

I think Morgan has had some experience with renting?

Van was essential part of windsurfing investment - camp right next to the beach

Dogs not permitted at Elanda pt camping.

@all
Numbers looking good for the holidays - getting excited

My son Max is pumped to continue his early development - wants to race me!

Im hoping this 2 weeks on the lake will be back foot in strap development- done and dusted; then maybe some more work on turning around.(just dreaming)

Cheers Jeff
PS Picked up some smaller wavesails for the teenagers (thank you gumtree)

Careful Shannon... Renting holiday houses at Boreen Point can end up leading to buying and living here!!

I'll be there the first week of the holidays as I'm representing the WindWanderers. Will bring the family and my starter gear for the takers. Depending on the conditions I'm happy to organise some beginner and intermediate lessons. Definitely will do some kids clinics in the mornings when the wind is light. Looking to bring a volley ball and net for those wind poor days.

Talking to 'Nowork' getting pumped for Cootharaba

We are interested in getting involved in the freerace movement - can't let Morgan have all the fun

Reckon this holiday may be a good time to practice?

Bring your devices

Given the bayside group have classes - maybe something for us beginner/improvers?

1. Slow fat beginners and...
2. Skinny fast improvers
Self nominated

Prizes. ... Bragging rights whilst consuming Tony's green ginger wine

Cheers Jeff
We need more wind- going stir crazy

Elanda dreaming

My mate Andrew (AVB) and family on his annual pilgrimage to Elanda.

Trying to convince Andrew that windsurfing has moved on a little since his BIC Metal rock was the board to own

Sent a board and sails up with him plus some some kids gear

Idyllic time paddling today,hoping the wind gods deliver over the next few days.







Anything to get my mate AVB back into the sport

Cheers Jeff
