Yeah OK, will see what develops. What time are you looking at, perhaps around 2pm?
Might give a few others a call.

Cheers

wind is slowly starting to come in. that will be timed nicely just as the tide has gone out.

Give you a good calf massage if your unlucky. Thanks for the note though. Very little wind on the north side at the moment. Hopefully more near the bay

At VP now very little wind. But feels like its increasing. Will stick around for a little while.

I reckon it's death by a thousand cuts. once the mates join in.

if you're on the north side queens beach north at Redcliffe is one of the best spots around in a northerly. most NW breezes end up being NNE-NE by the end of the day.

yeah it's a hard call at this time of year. will keep watching the goldcoast graphs for the change.

either way VP is still sailable in a SW it's just not as good as wello as it's gusty.
