I'm coming up Gill be there midday was hoping to try Greens but it looks too westerly so might be Bell Buoy but you're the experts let me know where you go. My mobile 0417 577884
Dunno!
Forecast is currently WNW, and Greens does work in that direction. We sailed Bellbuoy yesterday and it was RUBBISH. The ocean was far too messed up.
Greens will be smooth and I think at this point, the best option.
Touch base when you are in town Houston.
Houston..............we have a problem !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm driving down to low head after I drop the kids off at 9. I was thinking of sailing either lagoon or east beach. East beach was supposedly good on Tuesday. I can only sail till 2pm as have to be back in town by 3. But prefer to sail where others are sailing so if a definite sail plan emerges let me know.
Yeah Houston has a problem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Near perfect conditions at Greens cross onshore wind but clean most of the day, got a bit messed up when the wind picked up to over 30kts.
Six of us out, Locky was on a 3.8, I was very powered up on a 4.2, and Nigel who came out of the woodwork went out on a 6.3m?????
Geoff was pulling off some excellent end over ends...............I lost count must have been over 30, dam near every run out for the 1st two hours.
Greenie nearly pulled off a double fruitloop which I think was supposed to be a single barrel role......pretty specky should have caught it on film.
I saw Jason do a loop he may not think was not a loop but he at least got round.
Locky had a few attempts and managed to smash his second sail in two days
Nigel, well on a 6.3 there's not a lot he could do.
And I was a frickin whimp................................... but that's what you all expected anyway
Anyone (including me) that aspires to that elusive loop or a first time in waves should go to Greens ............excellent spot..........pity about the people![]()
And don't bother coming home Houston. Even Prue wont have you back now!
Time to active plan number 786; Should be able to get a week at Geraldton before Christmas![]()
Had a great sail on the east side yesterday, Heaps of wind. ! ! ! although the wind did try to fool me at about 10 o'clock when it was bizarrely blowing 20 knots for about 30 minutes. A consistent 27 to 30 knots soon kicked in and the water was very smooth, not much swell. I clearly made the wrong call from the social point of view as I sailed by my lonesome myself, although I possibly would have been on and off the water before everyone else arrived as do have those small little commitments called children to collect after school.
Don't worry Ant you've got plenty of time to learn how to loop!!!!!
Well, I suppose a little bit of time!!!!
Well, I suppose you better hurry up before it's too late!!!!
