Gunna be god damn having a blow in the Big little City this week, Blowing Goats Monday, Borans rd Tuesday, Parking Beach Wednesday, and Carton beach on Thursday, Hung over Friday,.

Bar Munday any of tha abuve plasses will be gooning offff , I'm as Keen as Mustard

Keeping in mind Work Commitments, and all.

Just letting you know what day to go North and Sell letuce.

Big swell coming in Tues and Wed

Ya , dont do a any work thus a week,
Weekend will be a dud, so taka tha week off to learn some English and sail.
Carlton blows it ring tomorrow west, gooda for everyone

My work load has eased a little so I'm keen for the hurricane tomorrow. I feel like a good speed blast at Dorans.

Tomorrow arvo its west wind building and swell building. Should be good for Carlton, so I'll knock off midday and head out. Kazz, try some waves instead.
Wednesday looks like it'll get to 20+knots NW early arvo, then back off later, so might be a bit iffy. Maybe flatwater at Dorans/Mortimer??
Thurs looks good for arvo. Going WNW 25+ knots early arvo. Swell smallish, but could be Carlton again?

Swell net says the swell is only ankle height at midday and shoulder to head high by 6pm, that's a quick build up. Does that mean it will be waist height at 3.30pm?

Oh just remembered my small quad is in the process of being mended so can't use that tomorrow so might have to be s Dorans blast for me.

I'll be heading to Sandpits about 2pm strong W to WNW cross off shore with a building swell setting up for some epic down the line riding right off the back of a NNW so it should be as smooth as a babies ....

I know it's only early but at the moment at Clifton its 0 knots with ankle deep waves and beautiful sunshine. Of course based on the forecast we are not sailing at Cliffy but where we end up is anyone's guess - nice of the ant man to through a curveball and throw sandpits into the mix. Will be interesting to see what's happens later but we are know in wait and watch mode.

There's a crew of at least 3 at Dorans and it's good apparently. So I'm gunna pike on Carlton and ensure I get a sail in at Dorans.

It will be like 7 hours of painful labour. Waiting and screaming in pain while the waters pour down from heaven; waiting for that miracle to happen. At the final hour, when all hope is lost a screaming windsurfer will fall to the sodden ground. Born again as a whimpering little baby. Realising their pathetic place in the world, bowing to their god, pleading for mercy and to be released from the hell of their birth into the new winter weather world of Tomorrow.

Buzzy you get very creative when you can't sail

Looked at recent forecast and weather obs. for Wednesday (today).
Forecast suggests wind will back off from 25 knots (this morning) to 15-20 and turn more north west for early arvo. Late arvo meant to stay similar direction and pick back up to 25+. BoM obs for airport show it's dropped from 20 gusting 30 knots about an hour ago, to now 15 gusting 20 knots.
So if you go, take some bigger gear maybe? Or wait....
Apparently at 9:30 it was 15-20 and 3/4 mast high at Carlton according to Relic.
Dorans was quote "Looking Hot" at 11:10 according to Damo.

Marty I spoke to someone who lives at Lauderdale about 30 mins ago and he said it was howling at Dorans but very gusty. Can't believe that cause the Derwent is dead.
Think I'll stay warm & toasty at work today.

You guys saw the waves at Carlton......... just imagine what that would be like on a powered up 5.3 ........ bigg an smoooth.........well we got it

Looks like the Kids had a bid of a learner session at Carlton today in 3/4 mast high sets.
Tim and I will be down there in the AM IN 1.5 MAST HIGH SETS .

Dorans as usual was good today for periods ( midday was on,, and later in Arvo)

Blowing its ring off/ tits off here now!!!

Pics.....

sketchy early. Sub 15 Knots til about 3. But when that wind filled in ant paul and rob ripped it up. And I had a go when I wasn't going round in circles underwater.

Hay - Mister Last-Photo.

I think that you have lost one of your 2 booms.....?

It MUST have been HARD CORE if you had to sail with 2 rigs at the same time?

You guys are as hard as snails...

Oops Thought that was an Appleman post. It's his donated broken boom!

Wind all over the place tomorrow dropping off early but could come back at the end of the day if it's on I'll be back down at Carlton...... I could do with more of that

Looks like the swell has not built, in fact a bit smaller than yesterday.
wind is saying west 25 all day.
I will go down to Carlton this morning , anyone else?

I might head down there this arvo if time permits.
Otherwise maybe a quick sail at Dorans if conditions are suitable.

Not good advertising for sunny tropical Tassie Relic. Looks like your geared up for Antarctica.
Nice and warm today

JEZ TAKES THE CAKE - He turns up at 6am for a sail before work decides it's **** so comes back just before dark and pulls off this recovery

What time today are people going down?
swell dropped today as well, more manageable

Great pics guys - fantastic to see the action
