Tomorrow arvo (saturday), Cliffy and Goats look potentially good for wind. 20-25 knots ENE mid arvo, then 25+ later arvo. Swell is showing 0.5-1m on Meteye. If it happens, hope you all have a good sail. If I get a chance, I'll drop down with the missus SLR camera and will try to get some shots.

Marion Bay Spit track is a bit tricky for 2WD. With soft sand in a couple spots. I'll have a recovery strap if anyone gets bogged. Planning on arriving round 11.

Sounds like goats was good too yesterday

I knew there was a reason not to waste too much time kiting.
Well done.

Nuffin'

That's not strictly true - Paul B has braved the waves following a brief foray on the flats, and seems to be well and truly on the hook. I suspect that his net step is 'air', and afree that... Watch this space. He has also just invested in a 90l wave board, down from the 100+ Kode, and looking to put it through its paces. All he needs now is wind...like the rest of us.

Most improved Northern Wavesailer - Paul B

Paul is definitely making big improvements but so is Paul (Paul T that is) riding a Fanatic Quad..... all we need is some more Wind

allowing Paul (*2) more time on the water.

Why is predictive text on i-pad SO BAD?

Dust on the i-pod hatch whether in mac if rational supers?

If you know what I mean...

I will second Al's "Most Improved" award. The Paul's have it! I can still see that table-top...
