I hate walking around there, never seen so many stingrays in my life- like a minefield, you just pray for one of them not to hit you. I'd still love to sail in horseshoe though.

Well what do you expect sailing in a northerly anchorage.

They're not sharks, they are gybe training devices

It would be a good place to windsurf in a south easter but a bastard of an anchorage in those conditions.

yes, i realise it's an anchorage for NE's.......

that would be why i was there.

the beach cricket is world class if you are a right hander.

maybe the new spot for SW's ?

Ive been there on a good SE and with a mid tide you can ride between the swells for speed but even better on wave gear!!!
But unfortunatly i went fishing that day.

Mark when i get there i will make u some pipies and then u will see how good they are .....
