Hi all,

Just wondering,

We all rigged and parked on The Grand Parade and bestic street section, however now that the desal construction is finished and the beach access is all developed and cleaned, they have formed a new parking area just after the cook river bridge.

This area is clean and good access to the water and it does offer a smoother water in a strong Northeaster as being closer to the runway wall.

So is this going to be the new rigging area for us, what are your thoughts.

Thanks
Walt

long fenced off sig sag walk to the beach.

i had a look down there yesterday i think it looks great!!
but then u take a closer look and there no way i would walk my sails rigged over sharp metal at shoulder hight !! What were they thinking!!
i was very disappointed from a windsurfers point of view.. If on the other hand u were Jamie Durie U'd probably love it !!
Oh and that NE never came yesterday just sat around looking at the airport in my wet suit very wet cold another disappointment ..
I am looking forward to summer and the flat water see ya all sunday shhh

I drove down and took a look. I think windsurfing access is going to be difficult. Access from the car park to the beach is via walk lanes that are not very wide and zig zag.... I imagine this car park will fill up very quickly also?

Looks good, but jury is out on access?

The car park at the other end is no more either, which will make access limited again.

The weekends at bestic st will be the most frustrating anywhere unless get there early and wait for the wind to kick in, I guess we have to just grin and hope for a cold summer maybe to keep some away anyway enjoy your day

thanks

Dont worry the wind never blows on weekends
