enjoy (and check 1.00, was close...)

Hi Sean, Been to Noumea once before awhile ago. 4 of us thinking of
a week in March. How are conditions then.
Cheers.

New Cal is a great place for a holiday .
Have been 4 times now 3 times with just wife and me last time was with wife and our two young kids who both want to go back again as soon as !
I cant work out why you would go to Bali but give me New Cal anyday .
Ilse De Pin is magic and a great place to just unwind .
Next time we go will spend do a bit of sailing in Noumea .
Do they run clinics at all ??

Cheers and have a great Chrissy and New Year .

Geez Mev, should've called me, too bad for the wind, we've been sailing everydayup until wednesday (25 knts !). This arvo was alright though.
I'll be at the beach tomorrow around 12.00 (if the weather's okay) if you want to catch up
I look like this :



and I'm never far from laurent's spot (cause there's always food...)


waiting4wind is here also at the moment, he's been sailing nearly everyday !!

Thanks dartboy, looking forward to meeting you next time. I was actually brought up on Isle of pines (Indeed there are worst places )

Don't be fooled by the wind near the shore. I was thinking the other day it looked marginal, when I spoke to one of the rental guys he said it was 20-25 (the day before yesterday, I'm losing track) out near the island.

I was well powered on a 6m and found the free race board I was using a bit too fast int he chop so jumped on a FSW/ freemove board which was just the ticket.

But yes yesterday and today has been SUP weather!

I'll post some photos if I can work it out on the IFAD!

Lets hope the next few days is on!

There's a storm heading our way from the solomon islands, should get here on the 31st....

if there's a question, you already know the answer.

Can't stand the French but god the women are hot. Wee wee

Tera is a nice place to stay, did you get to try their "aquatonic pool", cool stuff !!!
(except they get you to wear a condom on your head, mind you, when I read the stuff above it could suit you...)

You would've paid less at naish, Aloha or sp8ce if I had told them you were coming.....
Next time maybe !
(yes indeed women here are stunning !)


Ps : I didn't redthumb you

Why is that Peter? Sydney is the best city in the world. It says in the paper and on the news every year. They are never wrong are they?

Waiting4wind and the local :

Most welcome Des !!

Come back anytime !!

Happy NY !

Shaun,

My thanks too for all the helpful information and the fun sailing.

Happy sailing and good winds for everyone in 2013!

Was in New Cal around 8th Nov hired a naish 80 lt with 5.3 for $30 for an hr gear had been thrashed a bit but better than my old gear. Had a great sail 12-1:30 wind was constant 20-25 knots stayed at terra beach hotel got the best deal $1400 return 3 nights with the wife. Wind got stronger as the arvo went on. Should have gone back out but hadn't sailed for a while thought I'd save it for the next day. What do you know???? Didn't happen. Back there next time though. Can't stand the French but god the women are hot. Wee wee

So on a thread that was started by a guy who lives in New Cal so there is a fair chance he is French, don't know because i haven't actually met him YET, and seems to do nothing but assist Aussie windsurfers, give them advice, answer any questions they have, get them discounts at the local hire places and even hook up for a sail on top of posting videos that are of epic windsurfing spots you post that you "can't stand the French". He probably also does all this with no vested interest financially but just because he seems to be a good bloke and wants to see people to have a good holiday in the place he obviously loves to live.
Maybe you should change your profile name to Bonehead. Possibly it was an attempt at humour but it was not a very well thought out one.

^^^I'm planning a family trip in Oct to Qld & also keen to skip over - October is generally the best time of year in Vic for WSing, what are the conditions over there at that time? Cheers in advance.

Btw - that first vid is still one of my all-time favs!
