I'm in the southern end of the Redlands.

and, it's here.. SE changed just kicked in. Redcliffe tomorrow for me.

Where is everyone planning to sail on Monday?

I think VP for me too, Mon & Tue.

Me thinking Chochie Island mud banks off VP good low tide at 3ish am going to try to arrange the team to sail there very flat water for good speeds.

I would like to try these mud banks but I can't go today, perhaps on Mon & Tue. Are you talking about the south east corner of the Chochie Island? I was passing those banks couple of times and they made me really nervous as I'm not familiar with this area. Sand & mud bars seam to be everywhere on the low tide.

Is anybody who knows the place well keen to go there on Mon or Tue ??? Wind & tide should be spot on.

Good might bloody cool things down abit

made a big difference. wind seems to have gone soft though,

can also be gusty in a SE wind sometimes. not always but you never know until you get out there.

seems to be preferred in a Southerly because the angle is better and the wind is better.

there's often a bit of marine life along the bank, turtles in particular, so if i'm the first one there i tend to take it easy on the first few runs until they take off elsewhere

Sausage and I have been skunked up here in yeppoon hope you guys get some wind down there.

The turtles down there must be a different species. The ones at the top of the Bay are attracted to windsurfers.

I agree the turtles are much bigger up your way. down here they don't grow too big because the tiger sharks eat them before they get too old.
