Did anyone else get a good sail today? Queen's beach was seriously first rate. I think God might be a bump and jump sailor on her days off.
Did not sail today.. family and friends...and a hangover
Had a blast yesterday... lots of fun a viccy point
ARRRGGGH! Missed it by that much.
Had a family luch and got to Margate about 3.40. It was blowing for a 5.8. By the time I got rigged n ready it was formula weather. I waited til 4.45 and as I was derigging it blew again.
Your God is fickle.
Great windsurfing at Redcliffe this weekend. Sailed both days south end Margate off Scotts Point for old times sake. Today was a blast between 2-4pm, 5.9m North sail (brand new) on a 95 litre F2 project. Yesterday was more a 7 metre day but still fast and furious. A few kites out as well. Doesn't get much better. May be the last sail for a while unless you ride the Westerlies. Where do you go when the offshores howl??
I agree - great weekend at Redcliffe. Today was a blast on my new North 5.9 attached to my old and trusted 95L F2 project. Yesterday still fun on my 7 metre sail and 105L F2 Stoke. For old times sake sailed off Scotts point both days. It's rough and exciting out there - great fun. Tired and satisfied now. Where do you go when the westerlies start howling??

Hang over today oh the chop was hurting my head
.
Had a good sail at wello good 20 knots got touch stronger for awhile before the squall come through then zip around 3.00. wow 2 weekends in a row now my wifes not happy![]()
Went to VP Sat and Sun, Sat was exo with the wind picking up as the arvo progressed. Sun about 1-3pm was great but started to ease off after the squall went through about 3pm, then up and down.
But who's complaining with a SE in late May.
Got the old bones working - Cheers![]()
fun arvo sail, 5.9 up, was a bit light when I got in at 130, but picked up.
felt a bit sorry for the guys who were downwind after the squall blew through and wind dropped to zero.... a lot of swimming to end the day for some i think.
VP was great fun yesterday and today. Felt sorry for the poor kiters who rigged up today just as the wind died late in the afternoon.
Also had a gr8 arvo at Queens, hey Ian mate your gybes are getting good. Tried out my Acid 86, luv it, just wanted to keep sailing and it invites air time ![]()
Dr Gas, I'll sail at Scotts with you, I used to sail there all the time, it can be epic in a big SE....
