Any ideas for a sail tomorrow on a westerly. Either river or ocean not too fussed. Pinnaroo point for a beach run??

Majestic Point / Magic Point. Launch from the end of Ardross St in Applecross.

If it's a true westerly there's very little wind shadow there and it works really well.

Westerly this time of year? Scream at Huey and wait for Monday instead.

Pt Majestic worked well this morning. 100l Patrik slalom, 7.5m KA Koncept & 40cm vector volt carbon. Great combo!

I could have sailed 6.5m but could not be bothered changing sail as it was very flat..

Ended up with a few smoking runs out from pelli point on a mates 6.6 and a 100l slalom board. Even got the kids and wifey on the boards. Probably better over at lucky bay as there was a fairly large wind shadow. All in all a good day.
