River run?? About mid day
Sunday: Winds: Northwesterly 15 to 20 knots increasing to 20 to 30 knots by late
morning and further to 30 to 40 knots in the afternoon. Winds tending west to
northwesterly 30 to 40 knots late afternoon before shifting west to
southwesterly 30 to 40 knots in the evening.

Ignore the maui in search bar it is melville waters. Mosman to applecross

Been keeping an eye on the graph to see if its actually going to happen but was going to make a last minute call tomorrow. That run in your picture isn't that long 3-5km. Hopefully it goes straight west and we can do a run (or two) all the way down to the narrows.

Thinking twice if a few people. Do not want to go across wind at any stage. The water is real shallow so the runners really stand up along that route should be fun

A few runs would be the go and if you only drove to point Walter with a quick dash across into the wind you could then cruise all the way up to mosmans with the protection from the wind equals more paddling time, less driving time!

Or even just walk out to the end of the spit and go straight down wind, by my calculations would be just under 5km and I'm guessing pretty darn quick.

I'll be keen to join in if that's ok.

Only if you dont win:)

See you tomorrow will post meet time in am

Hilly for gawds sake get rid of that avi mate - bad shiz karma

Not looking good for today's DW run, its 10knts weaker than predicted at the moment and still has some east in it from yesterday.

Sweet. Cya there.

Think there is a good carpark on Melville beach road at the end of Cunningham. Slightly on the improve.

If only we were at rotto hilly, would be a good run back to Rockingham.

Would have to be bloody fast to avoid all the GWSs out there

Ok will have the truck there to transport boards and few grew will bring straps and foam for board protection I WILL BE THE TRUCK BITCH
And you guys can tell me how good it was

Your a good bloke Stimmo, I don't know why everyones says bad things about you. By the way towled up Galvo on Friday.

Best on ground award for stimo. Truck driver/timer, legend!

Absolutley agree. With the use of Stimo's truckmeant we were able to 3 runs in and very little car shuffling.

Run 1 was a bit of a warm up as the wind hadn't really come in yet. 4.27km with an average of 10.2km/hr.

Run 2 the wind had started to come up and more runners were had.4.05km with average of 10.7km/hr.

Run 3 the wind was really howling but the runners didn't seem as good as run 2 were there were glides of 100m+ to be if you could linkthem up. 4.06km with average of 11.2km/hr.

We all agreed that the second run felt like the best even though number 3 was the quickest.

Well done to Niles who came on his first DW run on his Jimmy Lewis surf board.
