Maybe the gods will align - just need to negotiate with Minister of war and finance.
Might even be a sailable at the Mid if there's swell
Looks promising!!!

That extra 1 1/2 hours each way - not sure.

Make a decision based on Sunday nights forecast - if there's enuff swell and wind forecast locally I might stay local (and regret it when I see the photos)

Haven't seen a better forcast all year. Swell 2-2.5m 20-25 knots for Monday and 3m and 20-30 knots Tuesday but only south of beachport.
Worth another pineapple in the tank?
Never driven Nene to Robe so cant comment on the time factor.
Will you get the mid over head and two guys out?

Last night 4' and 20knots cross off Nene Valley channel.
4-5 top carves super smooth.
Minus 1 quad back fin. Damn reef
8.5 out of 10
Makes up for 6 hours on the beach Monday
Last time I sailed the channel was with Maris a couple of years ago

That break but not those rocks. Just came in too tight in order to get back to the car and miss those boulders.
Wind went ESE and was more cross off and no swell in the lagoon to push upwind.
Aah well was worth a sunken drake
Dont want to jinx but some easter swell and maybe wind on the magic seaweed outlook
