How good was that?!
Slept well last night, got quite a rinsing (damn open beach shore breaks!) and big windy survival session, the seas got angry when it hit 25-30 late in the arvo!
Wind from the opposite direction today just to mix it up!

Yes pretty extreme. Went to Turners Camp expecting a repeat of Wednesday OMG. I had only packed my big gear!!

Pete and Tony went in - brave souls. I stayed on the beach and was the rigging wench ;-). Brocken mast - multiple sail changes,,,, the boys needed a bit of looking after :-)

Too much for me and my big gear - decided to save myself for this afternoon at Sandstone Pt

hey Jeff, just read Johns post on your post/log.. pretty much on the money, maybe less sails if your only sailing flat water.
If its properly windy and bumpy you need to downsize, large gear is a night mare in rough and windy.
