Thank you. A worthwhile walk through mud?

Any other Wello hot tips? Nasty currents, submerged hazards, nude bathers I need to keep an eye out for?

If you are on the eastern side of the point at low tide, stay in the channel until at least half tide. On the western side once you get out nothing to worry about. Exept an abundance of kite borders. They are all pretty good at wello.

Yep, tomorrow should work. Where are you guys heading to?

Actually, last forecasts were really bad. Is it because:
1. westerlies in the winter are difficult to forecast?
2. wind in the winter is difficult to forecast?
3. BOM forgot how to forecast?

The dinghies are capsizing at Manly, its on its way to the 2 surfers at wello.

About 18kts west. Might pack a cut lunch and take the long journey over .

i was trying to enter an altenate dimension when i went through my sail on the first run
i went over a wave and the board was picked up by the wind and flicked me round on the sail.
