Hi guys how goes it down in ole cold southern tas?
Jane and I finally made the WA coast, had a quick sail at 80 mile beach water was warm and milky colour cause of the reefs, not much fun too gusty and the long shore current meant Jane had to drive down the beach to pick me up, just no way you could gain ground upwind.
Now at Exmouth, its oh so good, air temperature around 28 degrees, only wear boardshorts, sailed at a place called Sandy Bay (would you believe it). 15 to 18 knots of wind SW direction crystal clear water
Sailed about a K offshore to the edge of the reef then big blasting downwind rides back to the beach.
This is on the seaward side of the gulf, in the national park no one else out except for guys fishing and Jane in the kayak.
Definite surf on the outside reefs but hard to tell how shallow the reef is and its an ffn long way out
Wish some of you guys were here, it would be a real blast
Anyway boys its was great to hit the water even if it is flat, will check out other places as we wihile away the warm balmy days,
Next stop Carnarvon to get to Red Bluff, probably scare the shi...... out me.
See you on the warm side ha ha ha
