I'm gonna try and keep this up to date, given that I can see Dorans all day from where I work, I thought I might post my eyeball observations. Even if I cant sail cause I'm working.

Today at 9:30
Solid WNW blowing around 20 maybe 25kts in the gusts

Yeah, how hard can it be?

If I can set one up to look IN my neighbour's window, surely you can set one up to look OUT yours...

It's finally staring to fill in.

I'll be heading over about 1

You've got to stop using the batteries for your other personal devices.

Keep them for the suit, that's the oinlky warm spot you need.

Looks like a couple of days of typical Doran's gusty frontal stuff
If it hadn't been so crap lately I wouldn't be so keen.
Yesterday was fun, peak wind from around 2-4

I'll be trying to get there around 2 or 3 today and tomorrow
