Anyone using a trailer for their gear around Perth? Can you park at most (or any!) spots with one? Just moved over here and trying to decide on a car; wagon, van or hatch+trailer.

Hatch and trailer works fine almost everywhere for windsurfing spots - I use roof-racks for SUP / surf spots. Good luck and welcome to Perth.

Welcome to Perth! Be sure to make yourself known.

I've had a lot of dramas trying to back in at Dutchies, and lack of room at Scarbs on a good day. Metts is no chance.

Get a van if it is a option I reckon

There are often people with trailers at Melville and Pelican Point, though even with a car only parking at Peli can be difficult.

Thanks for the welcomes and and advice not sure it's helping though, still torn between what I want versus what I need will be working about 5 mins from Pelican Pt so probably end up with a boring wagon.

Hi Squiddy- ever worn a GPS ? interested in how fast you are really going ? think you have a windsurfing addiction?

if you answered YES to any of the above, join the GPS Team Challenge, and the Windsurfing Association of WA!

(tell them " the force is strong in me and Obi one sent me!")

a couple of the Vic teams tried to recruit me too while I lived there, but I feel a bit of loyalty to the Mob. Hard to get a good session to coincide with another team mate though...

Have just arrived in Perth, and having had the same issues I eventually decided that the logical set of wheels would be a VZ Commodore Wagon for around town / after work sessions, plus a trailer for road trips.

However, logic has nothing to do with the final decision, so keep an eye out for a yellow VW Kombi panel van at Peli and Dutchies...

Squiddy stay with us, hunt out Troppo but you might have to learn to wave sail Also Pelli would be a PIA with a trailer, Melville is ok but get there early.
