I was just chatting about this.

We're in the centre of a high pressure system at the moment, so it's not air pressure doing it. The air and water are both 17deg at the moment, so I can't work it out.

16 knot NEer though, I'll take it!

Yes, I am in Perth now and I was driving down the freeway. Not sure what its called but its the big road going along the river for a bit before crossing over into Perth City.

Definately seemed like a bit of breeze and looked like its coming from the SW. I saw some dingies out sailing and they seemed to be going alright. Hey its a great day in Perth. Nice weather. Nice city.

I sailed Bellambi George, was mast high on the big sets and 20+ knots. Got out the back and on the first wave I caught an edge, holy ****, the world just exploded. Had to swim 100+m to my gear after that one (waves were breaking WAAAAAY out the back). Gathered myself up, almost out the back the second time...absolutely munched, swam another 50m to get my gear :| Was okay after that, caught a few monsters but I had my big board so it was sketch. Light was fading so I called it a day as If I got smashed again I'm not sure I would have made it back!

First NE'r of the year, bring em on!
