Just a few photos from Green Island

Great photos Ricky and I see Luca smiling must mean he's just about to overtake Vando again for the umpteen time

PS - did anyone get their fins caught on that line in the 2nd and 3rd photos

Would you recommend this for a family windsurfing holiday?
What is the story with Jelly fish, sharks and croc's?

Sorry for the stupid questions, but don't know a lot about this area....

Sausage, that line is Vando coming out of Warp Speed as he leaves a heat signature on my sensor :)
Luca tells me you wouldn't know anything about speed

Hi,
if you stay at the Resort you can hire windsurf gear (starboard and Severne) and yes i do recommend it.
As for the Biteys, i would suggest in winter your ok, but summer I would recommend a stinger suit for the Irikanji (spelling?) as there are no box jellys on the reef. No crocs except for ones in the cages on the island and sharks... well at least you will be able to see them
Google Green island resort and go from there, but get some local knowledge about the reef and tides (not from me).

Hey Pacman, Does the resort have the 20 knot wind limit on equipment. The other Islands won't let you use windsurfing equipment on a 20 knot forecast, even if it's 15 knots

If you want info on the hire gear give Toody a call as he runs it not the resort.

Contact info here, www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Windsurfing/Gps/question-from-chris-re-green-island-speed-week/?SearchTerms=green,island

I think it would depend on your experience level... but yes as gaz said contact Toody. I have only been over there once with my gear so I dont know much about windsurfing on the Island other than ITS AWESOME

More green Photos!
Some are from the 24th and 25th when the wind kicked in a bit more!
This week coming up looks like a ripper as well!

It would be nice to know who the sailors are...
It is good to put an image to names we have been reading about for a long time.

Blue rashie/Ka is Troy
White gath/Severne is Kel
Aus 050/Loft is Vando
Dr Cam/Pryde is Cam
White shirt/waist harness/Pryde is Locky
Red rashie/Severne is me

Should be some big numbers coming from Green island this week !!
Oh and no you don't need to stay in the resort to hire gear

Looking good up there again Toody wish i was there.

Nice Photos
