I think we should add a warning here about the floating weed Islands.
There's a lot of them spread over the whole course, (except the inside run, but that will probably be too shallow on the weekend).
They are so dense that, yesterday at low tide, hardie and I could both stand on one without getting our feet wet!!!!!
Even with a weed fin on you'll come to a dead stop if you hit one.
They are very hard to see, floating just under the surface.

Also see my post about remarking the rocks at hardy's, on how to miss the rocks.

Trust me, they will stop you dead with a weedy

What? Even on the observation tower run?

That shouldn't be too bad, most likely place to meet them would be straight out from the green roofed gazebo at Len Howard's reserve. I waded out to them yesterday, but didn't site thru to the novara sand bank and platform. My guess is you should just miss the outer ones.
