I went down to botany bay for a sail the day the storm hit around 3.45pm in the arvo. There was a guy on a standup paddling upwind from bestic st, nth end of botany bay.
Must have been 15 knot sou wester and looked like he was doing it tough heading up wind heading for dolls point.
When the southerly hit I sailed for 40mins till I was knackered, saw the same guy doing the downwinder in 35-40+ knots, powering downwind at a good 20knots back to bestic st.
Anyone know who it was and how did he get his board back up to his car, 50 knot gusts at the airport at 4.30.
