What is going on - at Clifton there is no wind, no swell and it's raining. Is this front going to happen. Do I bother driving to Park or just go to Dorans if it blows - decisions!!

Waiting waiting waiting. Not much wind here in Lauderdale. Maybe by the time we drive down to park it will be in or is that wishful thinking.

Park beach at 4:00 pm 20 to 25 knots SSW sailed with a 5metre for about an hour, excellent bump and jump in about 1 metre waves, the rain was a bitch though.

Mortimer blew 25 to 40 knots. Sailed on 3.5 and 3.7. Out of control for much of the time. So park Beach may have been the pick of the places to sail.
