Gday all. I just returned from a 12 day boat trip through the Ments with Doris and scored it big time. The place pumped until the last day. We spent most of our trip in the south and only ventured up as far as Lances on the last day. Here are a few shots of some of the waves that went unridden . Best surf trip of all time!

Awesome

You lucky, lucky bastard!

Epic photos. Some serious juice there

!!!!

Nice work. Thanks for sharing

Here's a pretty solid sequence of Adam from the Glass Lab - it was evil out there with the storm passing behind us and these 10ft sets draining so hard on the reef . Only of 3 of us went out this session , and yep I took the beating of my life on one of these beasts. Heavy ****

I have about 1000 pics to sort through , from 2 photographers so I will post some more as I sift through them all.

Bloody awesome KEARNSY, thanks for sharing.

Epictacular man, good score...need more more more

Razz - we went with Tony Elthrington aka Doris onboard the Raja Elang . Tony is a bit of a legend - an Aussie guy who has spent over 30 years running charters in the area. I would have no hesitation in recommending him and his crew at all . The boat , food and service was fantastic . Hardest part for me now is telling the Mrs this is now an annual thing for me

The traveller went great once I switched to the Large MF FCS2 . The board went well up to about 8ft waves but Im sorry to say the glass job is definitely sub standard. The deck is covered with depressions. I will not buy another Rusty.

The guy in the sequence is Adam Wessel - he owns the Glass Lab on the Gold Coast who glass a lot of the boards made over there these days . Those boys brought 8 boards each , each with light glass and they still held up better than my Rusty.

I did take my 6'7 for a run a few times but to be honest my shorter boards went better with more foam up the front and a pinched tail . The waves were heavy! One thing these shots dont show is the reef and how much water there is draining back out . Its all about paddling and the takeoff
