On Sunday 23rd April 2006 it's going to be a NNW at about 20 kts at 9:00am, building to 25-30 later in the morning, then switching southerly at similar strength with a front in the afternoon.

Apart from that, not really sure.

No more 15-20kt sea breezes likely until spring, but closer to winter there are often some big days 20kts +. It's pretty hard to predict, although from (failing) memory, this time of year is often not as windy as winter/spring. Go to RPS in Elwood or Sailboard Headquarters in Sandringham and the guys there should be able to set you up with something usable for your weight and ability, what ever they may be. Plus a nice thick wettie- there's some great sailing in the bay in winter, but it can be ucken freezing.

See you out there.

Thanks MickeyS and Windy Miller...seems like I have something to look forward to. About the cold wheather, thats alright. I am from Germany and surfing in Spring means 5 to 10 degrees and thick rubber suits [}:)]

I actually live right on Point Ormond...juhu.

Looks like I am getting myself a small wave board for the heavy days and a bigger one for the not so heavy days...can't wait to hit the water.

many thanks and cheers...

try point henry Geelong. Great on a north or west direction during winter if the winds not in a good direction for Melb.
