Rare weekend trip away for 3 southerners - keen to sail somewhere fun on north coast - flat water blasting preferred, intermediate standard, keen for any local advice on pros / cons of Port Sorell, Lagoon Beach or even Stanley or alternative suggestions. Wind forecast to be NW 15 - 20kn on Sat and W 10- 15 on Sun. LW is mid morning.

Hi there,

Looking at forecast I think the better spot on Saturday would be Lagoon bay, Not overly flat but has some flat sections on lower tides.
Sunday I would pick either Stanley which has a short low tide SW run at low tide or again Low Head. Al will be running some racing at Low Head if the wind comes in as forecast also.
Any questions on any spots post em up or have a look at "thespotguide"

Thanks - don't think we will have time to go to Stanley on Sun - so will pick best location to base ourselves for the weekend. Have got info from the Spotguide - will post any questions

Maybe consider somewhere on the Tamar Saturday with the NW, but then plan for Port Sorell for Sunday. Great direction and wind and midday low tide.
Lots of options this weekend. Def ask for more info closer to the days if you need.
