ESE is a good direction for the train.

Oh **** !!!

Signs say Marine Pde is closed Sunday until 2pm(?).

But I remember the triathalon a few months back trying to get to the train. Signs said closed Sunday but it still took me 2 hours to get from KFC to the train because they had closed a 2km section of the southbound highway so 12 guys could race on it. I had to plead with a constable to let me drive across the track to park at the train.

I wouldn't count on being able to park at the train tomorrow.
I think Shearwater will be OK though. Sunday, dunno.

Wind looks good next week looks good too !!!

But ESE/SE and big outgoing tide. Primo Shearwater conditions, no?

I was hoping ESE to sail from Shearwater -> Labrador, stuff $10 in my footstrap and eat fish & chips on the beach .

Still, I have an all day pass-out so wherever there is wind I'll be happy. Planning on sailing till my hands are completely blistered, then tape them up to sail some more.

Vicky Point eh?

Do we know what is happening with Marine Pde?

train is fully shutdown due to the triathlon, and after sundays event all the rigging grass near the finish line will be covered in gatorade multicoloured vomit from convulsing triathletes.

shearwater is looking user friendly. the bin could be epic though!

Good night.
