Damn! It is bad to be getting OLD! The BOSS 'n' I went to Hadspen today and on the way home I was sorely disappointed to see a goo Northerly blowing the tops off of the White Caps. Damn! Missed Again! However I called by Somerset to check out the beach and would you believe it?? Not 1 but 2 Blow Karts where out. I noted a driver getting off one and decided to check him out.... Yep! He was a local and doesn't own a Wind Vehicle.. I'm gonna have to change that!! It appears he is very interested in Wind Sailing and wanting to build so,,,,,,,hopefully he will become interested enough to contact us and as I have a second beast will allow him to have a go at it.. Hey Guys! Put in a plug with "Yahweh" for me[}:)]. I am sure he will take more notice of you than I.

You think it's Dark from your side?? Try seeing it from my side.
I may have put it too concisely, I was more or less thinking in the ether and hoping that we may be getting another couple of double headers into Land Yachting.
Anyway BOM is forecasting a great day for ideal winds so just maybe I will het Anthony Beach tomorrow and cut a bit of mean sailing..

OK so today the winds were great for speed but direction was a little off (90deg) Straight down the beach but as has been seen Anthony Beach is a goodly width so though I had some quick runs they short-------very short with lots of sliding,counter steering and running backwards. Gawd! Strewth! an hour and a half knocks bags of "it" out of you when you've not been sailing for a while.
Lots of fun no footage and I forgot to log on to my Data Logger.
