A few of things to mention:

Back foot in first is visible in the gybe

The reason why I like my harness line to swing

As I gybed my harness clamp flicked open, which was why I was looking down. Just after the end I had to stop to fix it. Forgot to tuck the end in the little bit of elastic that stops that happening. (Didn't really want to stop when I was catching Isaac! )

The water level was 'just' a few mm over the sandbar, so the water was really flat but not glass. We are hoping it will build up again over summer now the lake is closed, but the recent rain event may work against this for a while by raising the water level.

This is another look at why I like my harness lines to swing.

great video, but I find that the swinging lines are really hard to hook in if you accidentally unhook in chop

G'day Bruce. Nor'Easterly.

Boats Somehow that word does not seem to do them any justice. More like luxury, high speed launches! The other one is almost hidden behind the rushes.

Just as well there were no sheilas lolling around on the sandbar to distract you further.

Looks like a feed of abs may have been in the air too .....
