Google Docs will let you page scrape the BOM site. I'm sure I've done for historical information too, but can't find the spreadsheet. Maybe it was in Excel (so lost)

You can do funky stuff like this, i might make another historical one if i get too nerdy and bored:

docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OX49ddwNcWNxw5E-l7mOmq1JwcZ5gW9UgjVTHGrdWMI/edit?hl=en&hl=en

(tabs at the bottom)

...and then by looking at history, we can predict the future (haircut is probably right)

If anyone is at all interested it drives from this single, simple formula, and variations of:

Got to agree with Vando on this one.

Vando BTW aren't the last 2 weeks of Sep and early October when some of us crazy folks make a pilgramage down to cold waters of Sandy Point.

Thats very true normally down there a week or 2.
generally though the fronts that give you wind down there also give us wind up here.

Actually wind, seastate, time, tide, board, fin, sail, sail settings, boom height, general conditions, and maintenance issues.

Then again If I sailed as much as some of you guys seems to I might not be so completist about it.
