On hold up date next Wednesday (bet you Mothers day will be krankin and we won't be allowed out to play) - we should have had it last weekend!!!!
Looking at the long range marine forecasts there are some good nnw on computer model for next Friday - and looks like continuing in to Saturday nnw - keep your eye on it - there is some wsw swell predicted late next week as well.
The last weekend of May just might be what we've been waiting for -- watch this space --low tide at the mid at 0930 0.74 Victor Harbor High at 12.00 (1.34)
If the forecast is good Weds / Thurs we'll call it so make a tentative booking now and get the brownie points racked up while theres no wind.
We've called it - 9am saturday - we are running out of weekends and finally we have a decent wind forecast - the swell may be a bit on the small size but we are going to sail any way.
Low tide is around 09:15 at Pt Noarlunga - you can sail south of U turns and there is a little Right that breaks there - may just be a little shallow in close - or for the more advanced Triggs (100m North) may have a few low tide chest high sets.
The plan is to get as many people on the water as possible and have some fun.
Sausage sizzle later in the day - there has even been a few trophies donated for outstanding performers on the day.
As this is a social event that relies on windsurfers just getting together without a club or association a donation for the BBQ would be appreciated and jot your name down on the white board for a chance at the social wave sailing trophies.
Its been a tough decision to call it with such a small swell predicted - but as long as it's windy I am sure we'll have a good time - be aware that the Nthlies can turn off pretty quick around midday so get on it by 10 if its windy
We are going to meet at U Turns pergola 100m South of the corner of the Esplanade & Cliff Ave, Port Noarlunga South SA 5167 (hope the link below works
Ps Parking is limited to about 15 spaces but there is parking across on the road
Cheers - the wave sailing crew
