I do hope that seabreeze is right, but its probably more likely they are not. Still, 15-20 is sailable so I'll be going out.

Saturday morning at Bonbeach anyone?

I have found that the Seabreeze forecast for Melbourne is most often different and far less accurate than compared to the BOM forecast.

Which was why my experience said that there'd be more wind at the bottom of the Bay, so go there (and I did) and sail (and I did), 5.9 on a 115 slalom board.

Overnight Seabreeze was saying there would be 45kts this Saturday. Brown Arrows all round.

This morning it got downgraded to 15kts.

WTF?
