Went to wrecked to sail but dead offshore and closing out too often, so went to fisheries and sailed 10 to 17knots sw when the change went through, sets were going thru the bay from left to right point, could sail quite close to left point quite safely as the wave held up without closing. No pictures of sailing unfortunately as everyone wanted to be out there, but one of Pete heh heh !

that cant be SA!!?? looks so so sweet. way better then anything around here right now!!

is that a 3 piece mast pete?

there some really big sets of waves

bad luck to the guy who broke his mast

With the coastline we have and being situated on the worst bit for surf (adelaide)- I reckon if you spent the time there would be a lot of fantastic set ups around SA - they are just going to be remote - you gotta get out there and look for them - and not get to worried about the man in the grey jackets swimming below.

We only sail a small proportion of the coast really!

why didnt they make port lincon the capital!!!! imagine how close everything would be then! the first pioneers obviosly wernt wavesailers! but then again i suppose its the remotness that adds to the spectical!!good work to everyone over there getting those conditions!

Pt Lincoln was going to be the capital as the bay is 18-20m to the wharf allowing good shipping, but there is a lack of natural freshwater which is why Adelaide was selected. Wrecked is 20min and Fisheries 30min south of Lincoln, When we left there were 12 surfers at right point and that was cleaner than left due to wind shadow from cliff
