Bollocks, it's only since xmas that wind has sucked- up until then it was blowing through very consistently with a really good northerly once a week.

For someone that supposedly owns formula gear and can supposedly plane in 6 knots you sure whinge about the wind alot, maybe stop looking at arrows and go down to the bay and enjoy the wind that is actually there

I'm saying richard and I sailed most days, but there was a good northerly coming through once a week with a few good southerlies thrown in. For over a month I was either on the 8m/131L or 5.8m/85L. It was odd that there weren't a heap of typical in between 15-18knot days this year.

3 races of good wind.
Race 2 was great wind early then died by time racing started.
2nd last race was called off but I think the day was sailable in the end.
Today called off but I'm sure it will be sailable also.

Racing has a very specific agenda to not waste people's time so they call it off early. It's also not viable to start running races past 4pm which is often when the northerlies start to kick.

Windwanderers not running events nfi? Maybe the models didnt suit

I didnt think it was too bad up till xmas there were 3 days in a row around xmas.
But if your limited to weekends your not going to sail much.
Bring on DLS

brisbane airport (what we all use as a guide for NE winds) records show the average 3pm wind strength for december was 13 knots. the highest 3pm was 22 knots. the norm was around 10 knots.

january is a shocker!

average so far is 10 knots.

but considering it could be the lack of formula board.
