Well that was a waste of time. 6-8kts. Couldn't plane even with the 10m2 sail and some pumping. One of those days. Should have done something else.

DeanKOR. Welcome to the windsurfing community. Tomorrow u may be best to try Rose Bay at high tide approx 2pm. Sandy beach as opposed to the rockwall which only has slippery steps and rocks. Not ideal for beginners. Rose bay is on The Esplanade.
