Ok, it turns out that my heroic wind-dance last night has been a full success. Sorry, I should have danced on Friday already for a better weekend. My apologies! So, do we see us at the grand?

Thanks Gestalt ;)
I cannot go to Wello, still have no boots :( Those shells, stones, or whatever cut my feet all the time drive me nuts. I'd join you for VP or hc for the Grand. When do you intend to be on the water?

hi trauma,

you prob won't need booties on the western side, well not as much and i figure there are lots that don't agree with me.

i just slow down before hoping off the gear. also in winter your feet go a little numb so it never really hurts until the next day.

i'm not sure where i'm going yet. currently showing SW winds. if that persists see the wello doctor.

if it swings S which i reckon it will as the day progresses and the land heats up then VP.

i'm thinking maybe wello this morning and VP this arvo>>>>>>?

I've never worn booties sailing at wello. But then I don't wear a skirt either.

hmm,

still teasing us. might hold a little longer,

i rang mk and the winds dropped out at wello. things are starting to swing around on all of the graphs so i'll wait to see what it settles to direction wise.

late high tide today so plenty of time and as it's not currently blowing 20 knots anywhere i'm in no hurry.

Yeap! Those fences will be there for months to come and will move around to the Northern side to replace the rusted/ concrete wall and add a 3m wide path. Western side they are replacing the rock wall, doing something to the beach, adding a wide path and removing some car parks.

I went down after school today; thought I may as well walk out to King Island as the wind was non-eventful... Certainly relaxing... A kayak would've made it much nicer! Gee I sound like I'm getting old! [}:)]
