Sat is looking good on the BOM wind chart. I'm thinking about going back to Milang
again (tentative). Anyone want to join ?. Cheers Ja

Hard to drive that far when Seacliff, snapper, seaford strong sw - anywhere along metro coast could be an option!

Divaldo: I did think about hindmarsh, but I just feel like going back down to Milang again.

Russh: I'm a long way from anywhere, so it's only an extra hours drive for me. So, I
might as well go to somewhere that's beginner friendly :).

At Milang last week, when the water had those tiny waveletes on the waves
when it gusted, what wind speed does water start doing that ?

I would say the wavelets start about 20 knots, there were strong gusts that day in between the average wind.

6am saturday is an unspeakable time of the day - windsurfing is an after 9 activity!

Friday 4pm seacliff or seaford - just love ending the week with a good blast!

Saturday afternoon - U's if it goes sthly - some waves at the mid for me (if some swell ever arrives).

Yes Russ 6am is early indeed, but I have a wedding to go to at luch time down south so I better get the most out of the wind before social duties interupt.

Stick your gear in the car - you might be able to get a blast between the wedding and the reception!

It's a southerly.... goolwa's the go for me. Hopefully get the bank again, should be AWESOME all going to plan. Have to drop sister off at schoolies and look at a place down there first though.

Anyone else heading that way... will be good!!!

Your a real thinker, might just do that, the weddings at McLaren on tyhe lake so not far from your local stomping ground. So I'd better make sure the wheels on the car dont get flogged then.lol

You could sail on the lake... it's got more water than Boggy or Milang!

With the wind turning more south "boggy lake II" will be the spot to sail.
