Is it worth going out today? Seems like a nice day... I'm too green to know exactly...

Depends what you're after and where you're close to ... probably nice to have a float around at St. Kilda if you've got a big board and are looking for some light wind playing.

Head up into where the kites normally are - it's flatter water and shallower.

Probably not enough to get planing unless you've got some REALLY big sails.... yet.

Who knows. Afternoon may turn seabreezy yet.

Maybe try Ricketts or Mentone?

I'd get out there - seabreeze looks like it might come in. Already a nice 15 knots.

St. Kilda should be nice!

What about Elwood?

I tend to find Elwood is a couple of knots less than St. Kilda on a marginal seabreeze, but it'll definitely be worth getting wet at Elwood I reckon. I need another few knots then when the arrows turn green I'll head for St. K (100litre and a 5.7 is my biggest kit).

Definitely going out today. Hope it doesn't get too windy for me...
