lunch time onwards?

Tuesday 20th March
Building SW groundswell to an inconsistent 2ft at Middleton and 3ft at Goolwa and Waits during the a'noon, smaller early. Expect long waits between sets. Fresh to strong N'ly winds, easing and tending W'ly during the a'noon ahead of a late SW change.

Any size waves would be appreciated at the moment - theres only so much flat water no swell B&J a person can handle

Thursday arvo through to Saturday morning looks interesting
i finally got back upwind to the ute and it got better and better, cross off 3' and just enough puff to get going, maybe 20k in the gusts.
lots of slogging about with some late constant plane'ing

yeah I noticed you standing on a reef when you headed back out, fin?
You were lucky not to do some damage coming across the reef earlier on.

It was very offshore - I got three runs, two waverides and two dolphins. Pretty hot drive without air conditioning. Still, better than desking it!

But 3 hours of offshore waves was still a lot of fun - if not frustrating at times when you get blown off the back on a big top turn gust.

whos sailing day street tomoorow arvo - supposed to be 8-10 foot and strong SW'r - could be a challenge for the brave - I don't reckon you could see the set waves breaking - i'll be a kilometer to the outside bank
