Yep. Not sure where yet. Probably Manly.

There was plenty of wind at Manly. Launched on North side of Rose Bay was overpowered on 6m then hammered by wind squall (needed 4.5m). Very gusty conditions with variable wind direction and heaps of evil jellyfish. Where was everyone ?

Started at manly, too many jellies, headed to wello on Eastern side. Saw Vando screaming along, wow he was really moving. Love to know what speed he was doing!

Mine stung for ages too Daz. .Hot shower with very hot water streamed onto affected area (behind knee/inner thigh) cured it.

Went to Manly, got the lowdown about the gusts and jellies so hit Wello.

Not so many jellies and a grat 5.3m session.

The Wello crew are very friendly too.
