some advice and info needed please
Hi guys!
I'm new to this forum. We're moving to Brisbane in the new year. I'm a bump and jump sailor originally from South Africa but been living in Ireland for many years now, it's time to see a bit of sun again and dust of the cobwebs as there is not too much wind this side (east coast of Ireland that is).
I was wondering whether its worth while bringing all my kit along or should I sell some of the gear here.
I have been trailing the on-line sites and roughly know the spots, however I cannot really establish the general wind statistics as only a windsurfer will know. It appears to me its generally starboard tack jumping (thank god!) with breezes generally from the north.
It appears to me the wind is generally 10-15knots, would that be an accurate assessment?
Is the wind quite gusty when it blows or do you get nice consistent winds?
My current quiver include a 78l bump&jump and a 104l slalom bump&jump, sails vary from 4.2 up to 6.6 although my favourite size is around the 5.0 mark.
Any advice / info will be much appreciated.
See you on the water soon.
