WAYNOS!! It'll be worth the drive!
.......at this stage it's looking like Easterly all weekend at Stanley.
That means offshore surf at Marrawah Sat morning. East inlet goodness Saturday arvo and 20-30kn Peggs Beach on Sunday with maybe a 3ft swell!
Yeeeoooowwww!
It's free, its a gathering, it's at Peggs Beach camping ground this weekend, look for the van with the Liquid Force banner. Bring tents and kite gear and enjoy this awesome location.

Rock out.. here's a vid from last time... and this time, I'm prepared to offer a "windy'er than that!" guarantee!

Just short of Stanley, it is pretty well sign posted. If you only just got here you won't have kited the East inlet. You are in for a treat. If you haven't been to a ducks before you will have to go through the initiation process. Samio can you remember to bring the goat and the gimp costume this weekend.

Funky, I have many times thought about getting my ashes scattered at the East inlet. I used to sales rep in Burnie and I'd put my kit in the back seat of the car. If it blew Easterly I,d ditch work and bolt for Stanley, After some of the mid week sessions I had there I thought if I get caught out and get the sack it will be entirely worth it. Bring it on !!!

Goat is prepared.

Latest Forecast is 15-20Knots Easterly Saturday and 15-25 on Sunday. If a trough pushes down it could dampen that forecast, but atm it looks good!

The camp ground is at Peggs Beach Eastern end, about 2km past the shacks at Cowrie Point/Port Latta.
