Hi Sheetin - I sailed Marion bay once on a sw'r and just trapped weed on my fin. A few crew have said that Gleesons landing on a seabreeze / strong se'r is sailable down from the boat launch - havn't sailed it but surfed their a lot in my younger days (beachies at the far end of gleesons, bum breakers and at the point on big stormies) - I have always looked at Berry Bay near Corny point and thought it would be a good option for a North/nw'r.

Pondie shorebreak would be a pain in the arse to negotiate - but a strong se'r would be fun on the lefts

If you could be bothered lugging your gear Dust bowl might be OK on a nnw.

Best bet is Chinamens, 6-8ft with a stiff easterly or 3rd reef Daly's with a strong southerly (only Joking)!

When you going over as would be keen on a Yorkes sailin trip and take tthe family for a weekend?

in my surfin days ,saw 3 guys sailing the bombie in the middle of the bay at gleesons on a good 20 knt seabreeze,and they blitzed,we called em wind wankers from our tent site but it sure looked good fun,now i call em sailors.like russ said launch from boat ramp.probably same guys had a go at dalys in sthly but swam in,only small conditions and gusty wind.also saw few blokes have a go at pondi,not main break but to side {richards} on low tide,3-4ft in sth/east once again gusty and no good.I allways thought samon hole in a nw/westly would be a great wave sailing spot,the ponte preta of sth aus but one mistake and youd pay.

Wouldnt that be a blast, chargin thru the surfers at spitz on a 25knt sth/westly cross/off perfect angle....theyd luv it?
