Who here sailed at Ricketts today? I think I saw nearly 40 windsurfers which was great to see....

i was out there, got there late tho!

The wind went all crazy! and went South West!

Bugger about getting there late, I got out around 1pm, it was pretty good then, better ramps and was blowing a good strength. Was out on my 4.0 and comfortably powered up. I was packing up when the weird SW gust came through...

Dumb question - what wind direction was it? Easterly?

I went all the way down to Sandy Point, and almost didn't get to sail because it was so windy. Totally nightmare maxxed on a 4.2.

Soooo, if Ricketts works on an Easterly, I might try an after-work session later this week...

Cheers!

I had a good windsurf at Altona but unfortunately by the time the wind came in - about 10am, the tide was too low to use the speed strip there, so I sailed around in the waves on the sand bar. Sadly I had to leave by noon as I had to be home for my partner's birthday - already partially in the bad books for even going out!. Sounds like Nth Ricketts went off! Forty windsurfers is heaps in one spot - windsurfing must be the new golf!
