I am about to head down for a look. Might not get wet though. I don't have a 3.2m sail unfortunately.

Surprised my roof in victor has not left the house yet!

Good to see the HI obs are working again.

I came past again a couple of hours later to take another shot, but the wind blew the camera out of my hands...

Was it rideable. I was talked out of going - too small he said. Did the hangtime smackdown session at Semaphore in 40 knots instead....

Yeah it was sort of rideable 1 to 2 foot waves with the accasional one. Then it hit 40 to 50 knots at least and then it was all over.

I made the wrong call, should have sailed yesterday instead of today. My 76 kgs wasn't enough to hold down a 4.2m. Crazy wind!
