Not far off the mark at this stage. I'd be suggesting almost 3 days of wind. Fri, sat and sun. Only question would be greens or bell on friday. Depends on if the pattern moves through quicker.
I've got to work. Might make it on Sunday. I'll hold my breath.
Yes, yes, yes!
At this point it looks like:
Greens Friday (haven't had a good Greens sail in AGES)
Bellbuoy Saturday
Bellbuoy Sunday
Although I am thinking that the entire Met must be on long service leave this year, so don't expect too much.
Just be prepared, which means -
Start sacrificing those virgins, don't buy any new gear, forget to do that repair you have been meaning to get around to, wash everything out, dry it and put it away, organise a nice lunch with the family, drink too much the night before, tell your partner that you are saving that day for her (or him), organise the tradies to come around and fix your leaky roof...
Have I forgotten anything?
, tell your partner that you are saving that day for her (or him).
Geoff, ive saved the day for you big fella
G4K - I am not sure that this is THAT kind of forum.........I could be wrong though
Flouro - good point - a GLARING omission - stupid of me really
Forecast is still wobbling around - off to stick a screwdriver through my board, and put a saw through the fins.
If anyone has 'form' you could probably get yourself thrown in a cell for the weekend...I'm just saying...
Geoff if you are dismantling your boards you mustn't need your van anymore! Coincidentally I'm in the market for a new van :p
Count me in for Saturday and / or Sunday
Will keep you posted you crazy Pacific Ocean survival egg farmer
Sunday looks like strong westerlies.
So will let you know where some of us hard core will be!!

Clearly Pearso you would be better off buying an aeroplane than getting a van with the amount of jet-setting that you do.
If you are looking for a lift to the coast, just yell. If I am looking for a lift to the northern hemisphere, I will do likewise.
Deal?

Karma will get you Fos
I think I have done my part ... I sacrificed my hair ... forecast seems to be accepting my sacrifice favourably
It looks at the moment :
Friday - maybe Greens in the afternoon, but looks bit light and too northerly
Saturday - Bell Bouy
Sunday - Bakers
next week - wind all week, Bell Bouy or Greens...

You should probably drive something with a lower centre of gravity....its less likely to fall over....:-/
Ant Man the movie was a disappointment thought the plot would be about a chook farmer who swims with and wrestles white sharks in the southern ocean,tiger sharks in the Indian Ocean then jumps a swimming pool full of them in a VW van
Fluro you talk riddles........ can anyone decipher what this dude is trying to say......... when you do let me know.
Are you coming up Sunday?
Here are some pictures from today at Greens Beach ...
It might look like it was a nice and sunny day, but in fact it was hailing just 10 minutes before pictures were taken ...
Nice preparation for the weekend with 20-25 knots of wind and a bit smallish waves ...
