If today was any indication then tomorrow should be a ripper.

Forecast is still 25-33 NE and building throughout the evening.

Please advise the score keeper that you are racing, preferably well before race start and be at the beach, ready to sail, for the 5pm briefing.

The NEr did happen but all too late, it's seems to be up to the forecast level now (10pm).

So the race didn't happen but it wasn't too bad a sail on the 7.8m, flat water made it easy to get planing and the gusts were good.

Who do we blame for jinxing it this time. I think Andrew - Sick em rex, he turned up for his first race tonight.

yeah yeah yeah blame me BUT if you check yesterdays wind graphs you'll see that at almost the precise minute I finally hit the water, 7:15, all these green arrows started to appear
So I think the real losers yesterday were all those guys that came and saw and went home again not having faith in the Huey to deliver. I had a great blast for a solid half hour and there were STILL 2 guys out at 8:00 when I left.
The only downside???? I didn't get a 1hr speed on my gps for the challenge

were you out late too Tim? What sail were you using?

ahh yeah, I know now. I remember your wife
Next time I see you I'll come say g'day

I was thinking th same thing!

heading to Kurnell around midday big fella! sms me where you head to.

Just got back from the Mambo event and it was good for the first two days but very light for the last two ( a sailboard rig on a SUP was the go for wavesailing) .

And unfortuntely it looks like another crap forecast in Sydney for this week. What's the go with the weird weather pattern, we should be having regular and solid NE'ers by now.

Needless to say no fun race this week. I'm not even sure how far the black and orange snake has stretched across the bay in the last week, it may be impinging on our race course??

There was a heap of the big snake bound up near the nets on Sat, well enough to prevent cossing the bay if stretched out.

Time to bring back Super-X

good, I'm glad to be rid of that baton Michael

I thought the Formula gear purchase would have guarantee'd the sacrifice for 25kts.

:) Still have the speed board though. Waiting for a good stiff NE to do some runway runs.

Looks like a NEster came in today! Gutted! If I'd of known it had been that good I would have planned to go out. It only predicted about 12 knots on sea breeze. Typical.....
