Looks like plenty of wind in the north could be good at Greens and Lagoon
The south is a bit tricky one of those NNW days, north of the bridge should be OK, Jock here's your chance

Hey Ant.
Few options for tomorrow. Bakers, Greens, Bell Buoy, Lagoon. The usual suspects that cannot be named on line will be out tomorrow from mid day onwards. Will keep you posted

If you drove to Carlton right now you would get a good sail- looks good across the bay.

The wind on the derwent has gone so flat, would struggle to plane unless you had 10+m sail...

Rigging up at the pond now, nice and easy if the wind changes

You may say I can't go north cos I'm scared to loop and you'd probably be right though the real reason is my buggered shoulder from too many wave days at Baja.................I can hear you all now saying.........................what a wanker

Thats probably the problem with your shoulder. Swap hands once in a while

Felix, Sam and I had a great sail at Bakers this arvo. Waves didn't peak much over chest high but some long rides were had.

Will be back there again tomorrow!

I had a good sail today at the East Beach. I was very surprised how good it was.
25-30 knots of wind, and up to head high waves. I think I will give it another go tomorrow.

East Beach at Low Head. It is a rock point on the western side. Quite close to the rocks but the wind still gets in there nicely. Pretty much side off on the last section. Can't wait to try it when it's a bit bigger!

Damn the secret's out.......well I did label the photos East 1....5 its not really much of a secret but it hasn't been sailed much and it seems to work at high tide which is nice.
