Nice and easy sailing at Bell Buoy today... 25 knots wind and some small waves on offer... Claire took some photos of the crowd.

Cookie turned up as we were packing up. Managed to capture him ripping the top off a frothy one

Thanks for the photo Jason, I thought I had missed the action as I was struggling to plane on the 4.5 but after about 40 minutes the wind kicked back in a little bit and I got a few. It was not a classic westerly as there were a lot of holes. I checked what Cape Grim had been doing and it was all over the place, typical readings were 17 to 30 knots and 23 to 37 knots so I guess that's why the swell was messy. It wasn't to cold though but the jackjumpers definitely had attitude.
