from Adelaide Now;

Mr Garrett yesterday gave the green light to a State Government proposal to use temporary environmental flow regulators to manage acid sulphate soils in the region.

Regulators will be constructed in the Goolwa Channel, near Clayton, and in the mouths of the Finniss River and Currency Creek.

Water will be pumped from Lake Alexandrina to the new temporary pool created in the Goolwa Channel, inundating areas of acid sulphate soil.

Mr Garrett's approval means the regulators can be installed immediately, without an Environmental Impact Statement

Divaldo,

It is something to f*** us speed sailors up. Good to have water but it will probably drain boggy lake 2 - we'll see.

Yeah sorry Choco, I spoke to Mr Garrett in Barcaldine last week and asked him if he could handicap the SA Speed Demons.
He guaranteed me there'd be no more Code Red sails in the Goolwa Channel Sunset.

Thanks sausage[}:)] want to impress me design something like this

finest example of a draftsman ever. [}:)]

on topic.....

sounds like the lake will be good for some formula sailing soon,

I don't think anyone owns a formula board down here

Now back on topic..........



[My bad ..."there" should be spelt "they're"....how embarassment]

Does this mean back to sailing from the aqua cafe, maybe even straight across to rankings like we used to??? or even sailing at the barrage (now more commonly known as the sand pit) again.

Anyone remember the spot!!! here's some pics from the past. 10th of January 2007 sailing across the sand bank no troubles... remember this day very well as it was my first day when i was consistently in foot straps and harness every run, blew 20+ knots at times, out with rob. Best 14th birthday present ever ha ha:











And some taken from the aqua cafe on the 1st of Jan 2007:

here is a vid I made of me windsurfing from January to April this year at Murray Mouth and Rankings.
