OK, 94 views and no comment, so I'll be the one to say it.
Are there really that many of us out there that we need to keep "secret spots" ??

No, no secret. Just reminding gesty what its like where he used to sail. South end of Bribie/Bongaree, where the wreck used to be. The wind funnels into it. Nice big full waves(easy for me) in the channel and shallow and flat for long way out the back. Awsome spot.

Thanks, that's nice to know. I'm interested in learning about as many spots down in the SE corner as I can, especially somewhere with nice waves and good wind, cos they are not that common.

Take fist right after Bongaree Jetty(South Esp) and go all the way to the end.There is a small car park with an empty lot behind. Be shore to walk to the waters edge before deciding which sail. In s/e there is only a small wind shadow, not far from beach.

Saturday was perfect there. The wind was constant all day, no flukes or gusts. Most sore muscles were facial from smiling. Why has this spot been forgotten. Too far for most? Fifteen to twenty years ago in a southerly you would see at least ten/twelve others. Now no one?

What about that "one more meet" you were talking about.
