Tough call, but I agree it's the right call.

Weather is troughing out at a rapid pace, and even if there is a seabreeze, it looks like it will be really mild (8-12 knots), and the seabreeze line may drift on/offshore (i.e. SW at Rotto, E at Leighton)

Hope those that travelled here special for the event still manage to have a great time.

Cheers to all those who have shuffled their time around to put the event on and look like they'll be shuffling it around in a few weeks.

Best possible outcome when we are just at mercy to the weather. I didnt get a spot but for those guys who did, be patient. The WAKSA guys now have to do even more work to keep up the stoke. The other outcome was a $150 trip to rotto, one way!!! as I dont think the ferrries are gonna give WAKSA their money back either.
GO JUDDY!
