Got me.

I've got a new (2nd hand) 14'er that I have yet to do a downwinder on but I don't think tomorrow is gunna be the day, unless someone wants to do a river run?

Should be heaps of wind and swell around so I might get out somewhere with my little 5mtr kite and surfboard if it isn't to wild (maybe Mullas), are you in town going for a sail?

I'm sorry I won't be able to make the downwinder. I've got a brand new Starboard Evo that has never been used

I have entered that but given the forecast don't think it will be worth it.

Anyone else entered?

Ditto^^^^^^

Downwind run will happen both days I would say; will text usual suspects sat morning. Probably go Sat about 1pm and Sun about 11am looking at the winds on breeze and windguru.

I'm more of an unusual suspect but I reckon I would be keen to have a go at my first downwinder, didn't plan on it being on the river but the ocean is no place for a SUP ATM (was pretty fun with the kite this arvo though, 4.5mtr swell and 30 knot onshore).
I am working Sunday but am a definite maybe for Saturday if it's on.

Or sunday, depending on condtitions. But I don't think you would get even the most desperate SUPper out there in the conditions predicted. DW run in the river sounds much more inviting.

Looking like 1pm behind Raffles then paddle from Mosman (Freshie Bay) see you there, hopefully the wind picks up as forecast
