Cool video. Nice flat water - reminds me of Lake George in South Australia.

Nice vid Snides. Am I right assuming YoYo's, Cheesegraters, Glory Holes and Lake Preston are one in the same?

Almost sausage, glory holes is the Leschnault Inlet, sounds like they were North of Australind.
It's about 20km south of yoyo's

Great vids snides, nice to see that old blue board of mine in action again. Looks like Shane got the hang of it pretty quick.

cheers guys...most of the crew wanted copies of the footage that Cheryl and i shot,so
i decided this was the easiest way to distribute this.

Ado- yes the water is still hyper saline and like nothing else- this session was accompanied by rain which washed a lot of the salt off.
3 weeks ago we sailed a nor easter there in the sun and at the end of the day the salt coated our wetsuits in white powder..as if we had been rolled in icing sugar!
this sess at yo yo's was very square so the 2 secs where gained sailing away from the bar on both tacks..with a slight favour on the starboard run.

Sausage- lake preston,yo yo s and cheese graters are the same spot...the location was named yo yo's after yo yo! funnily enough... who (along with slowy) discovered the spot and sailed it first...it has been falsely named 'cheese graters' by an aging, bra wearing rabble that sail frequently at Hardies.

Decrep we where about a klick north of the trailer park trash..but essentially its the same conditions most of the way along the shore of gholes.

yeah the 80 is nice..it goes around corners ok but feels a little sticky in flat water (like the manta) it didnt feel as quick as benders f2 thingy tho..
hope to catch up for a sail with you sometime soon down hardies way!
