Looking promising for a nice NE today. Have been working like a dog so am keen to get on the water. Am thinking Queens/Neil St?

I can't get out till 3, so I'll be heading to the closest... manly I think, hopefully not too many jellies. Would like to go up to neil street, i reckon there wouldn't be any jellies up there??

Picked up a new red sail from board crazy yesterday as well, looks like its gonna be perfect conditions for it.

We are heading to a spot on Bribie - should be awesome today with the low tide on the push - really flat behind a sandbar - but if your up for blasting the run is only about 500-800m. Join us if you feel like heading north!

Ill sacrafice my domestic duties for some slicing and dicing of the jellies down at Manly

I'm going to try to get off work early..[}:)]

queens when redcliffe starts getting greenies, can we get 3 thursdays in a row

Bribie sounds fun although driving there is going to eat into my sailing time so I'm going to try for queens, last Thursday was awesome.

Queens late

Scarborough Flags and palm trees are bending over already. 19-20 on BOM

I'm off work at 2.30 so heading to Wello... bring it on!!!

Managed to get a lunch time session in on the Goldy.

Powered at the Alley on a 5.3, this is shaping up very well for the season ahead. Unfortunately had to go back to doing some work.

Queens was awesome more windsurfers than kiters today, great to see so many out there.will pack the 4.7next time .

What an awesome session out at Bribie this afternoon. Full poweerrrr on the 5m S1 and Flare. The newly found "shipwrecks" works a treat on low tide incoming until the sandbar is covered. On the otherside of the run is a bunch of sandbanks and mangrove islands which make a nice bay - mid low means there is about 2-3 ft of water over seagrass and sand - dead flat - lots of fun for freestyle and blasting. Worth a look if you are in the north as it seems like bribie picks up a good 5knots more on a NE than most places being out in the bay.

sorry lee I did the ol' new gear jinx. I was stacked on my new 5.3 red sail . shoulda been on 4.7 as well.

Awesome arvo at Manly !!!

Glad you finally got a good day on the water Richie

Fully powered on a 4.6m at Queens today. I doubt Bribie gets more than Redcliffe in a Northerly. Good to see the crew out. Where are the young ones??

Might have to check it out next time Willaus, sounds like some fun. Do you get any swell after the flat, for mine there is nothing better than a spot with facing waves with enough space to get some speed up before you launch.

Got out late at Wynnum on 94L and 5.4 rigged for top end , wondering if should have put the 4.7 on - always next time. Just 3 out.
First time I've sailed there in anything over 15-20knt. Good ramps on the incoming tide

next thursday looks good this could be a regular thing
