Planing on getting out for a sail on Friday and Al is keen as well. At this stage don't think I can get out Sat. Wind is looking good for the next few days

Looking at a good 1 hour and distance on Fri if all goes to plan

I dried all my sails out last weekend ready for the transport to Cairns, looks like I'm going to have to do it again.

Saturdays the go for me.

Clifton was a surprise, wind a bit patchy but gradually filled in to fully powered with a 5.3, the swell slowly built ...............and my new Fanatic THRUSTER just loves those conditions !!!!

You must have had a decent sail on the pond Russ always more wind there than Clifton

Iceman you must be copping a battering up there the forecast was crazy for the NE

Let's hope we get a bit more tomorrow

We'll let you off the hook Iceman, I just checked the observations for St Helens looks like it hasn't stopped raining and the wind very gusty.
I had an awesome 2 hours at Clifton....................got plaining twice, didn't get out the back once and when I finally gave up I place my rig in the biggest dogsh#t ever
