The train's not working too well this morning - too southerly. Got some nice gusts but hopely it will swing a bit this arvo.

Beware!!! Theives are about. This morning my crappy sail was capped off with coming back to find my van's passenger door lock broken and my iphone and sunnies missing (didn't have my wallet in the van) - nothing else thankfully. I was parked near the Crystal Bay driveway and there were a few kities around - no one saw anything.

Does capped off mean it was stolen? Hope your day gets better! Still a bit southerly here at manly too! Vic Point might be better for this direction; hard to beat the convenience of where you live tho Cheeky

Hi Cheeky

Drive up to the Shearwater esplenade in the arvo. Should be much better wind there and more people sailing.

Sorry to hear about your van they seem notoriously easy to get into

Yes, stolen - the bastards.

I'd love to head to S/W this arvo but I've got to work - end of month.... I hope you guys have fun.

A highlight today was meeting Neil so it hasn't all been bad. He filled me in on who is who etc - and I now have an excuse to get the new iPhone - this one will have insurance.

Had a great sail at the Grand really good! Sorry about the van they know we are out there and cannot do anything. A couple of years ago a car was done at the train car park and we were all stood there, they were in and out before anyone really knew. Toe rags go and get a job and see what its like have your hard earned goodies nicked!

Ah so it was you out at the Grand. I saw someone having a great time while I was derigging.

Did anyone get out this arvo at Shearwater? It looked good around 4.45 but I couldn't see anyone around Southport or Labrador.

So how was shearwater yesterday?

I'm gonna take the arvo off, wondering if its worth the drive down today.

looks like a couple of little squalls with the clouds, probably not worth it!

I spent most of today at SW waiting for the wind so you didn't miss anything today - avg 10knts. sounds like i should have gone to Manly
