anyone keen for a wavesail this weekend if it turns on? if not i will be keen to go low head for a flat water blast if wind cooperates...

would be good to get the northern guys a little more organised to sail together as summer approaches...

Nick, Al has been getting plenty of good sessions, leave your sheep alone, give him a call and get the launceston guys out of the closet

Today is looking Ok, and I hope to sail this afternoon, Saturday is looking good but I have not managed to make the required free time yet.....

is there anybody else out there, out there out there? or is it just me and AL these days, seem like Al only works weekend and i work weeks or something...

on my reckoning there is a southerly change going to pass through bakers real early on sun morning, this would take a bit of dedication as im talking 5-6 am, but if anyone is keen, maybe i can be stuffed

December weekends are always a bit tough for me, particularly when I have already used up my leave pass mid week. January is usually a bit easier with less work issues. Also the weather has been pretty average on the weekend for the last few weeks. There are a few others with wave gear up here Jason, Micheal, Paul and a few others but work and weather has been conspiring against geting everyone on the water at once. Jason and I sailed Bakers yesterday and Klaus the german dude (who was in Marrawah last January) is back in Tassi. He is going to be based at Marrawah for a couple of weeks I think and will be sailing around there and at Stanley.

sailed Bell buoys Sunday, classic bell buoys, 25-30 kn, nice and constant, cross on, but out of the west so you could chug down the line in a pinch. big kickers out the back and no bark floating in the water (yet)

Damn, I had to work, I hate working on (windy) Sundays. That wind looked like it was nice and steady from the west.
