Looks like a good north easterly on it's way down for Wed
Goats could turn it on for a splash in the waves
Cremorne front beach and Marion bay should be OK for flat water sailing

I think I'm still a couple of years away from venturing out on the waves!

I will be at Marion Bay from lunchish. Looks like it should be good!

Will be interesting to see what the wind does, looks like it's the best a bit later on

Dorans offshore could be the go again, had a good light wind sail there last night

Goats

Dorans

Maria Island northerly 22-27 at the moment and high tide is at 4pm, could be tempting to make the trip down after work!

Was a beautiful day at Marion Bay. I saw a couple others arrive in the distance just as I was heading back to pack up, not sure who it was I think they were heading out through the channel.

It made up a bit for having to work on Monday and missing out on the action at the pond

Rob & I had a bit of a burn on the flat stuff where Klaas seemed to be flying around and then after a bit of a look decided to lug the gear across the dry stuff to venture outside. Just enough to plane and no more and a bit of chop to play in. Wind moved towards east and dropped towards the end and we had a low wind dog back from the point to the cemetry with the little bit of breeze up our ort so to speak.
Nice day not at the office!

Got to Goats about 6pm to find 10-12 sailors on the water, plenty of wind but the waves we pretty small and sloppy......and young Jez smashed his mast and sail...don't let that put you off mate, just buy some more and get back out there
