I thought I would get an early sail in at GP tomorrow, anyone else going ( around 7:00 )?

For sure! Should be good fun! Will be more like 8am for me after I drop the little one to child care. See you there!

Some guys will be at rye from 8am then mount Martha at lunchtime

Will be at Rye at 6:30

Pics or it didn't happen!!!!

I seriously need to work for myself..... sitting in an office while hot northerly winds howl along.......its not right.......

To the guys that got out, how was it?

Both FB amd SC have peaked at over 40 knots! Thinking I would of still got over powered on my smallest (4.0m) rig.

Looking at the beacons my 4.7m, 94 litre and skill level would'nt have cut it. Was tempted though.

Keen to hear how it was also.

I went down from about 9-10.30.
Most guys were getting pretty smoked on 3.7s to 4.0s. Looked a little bit easterly so really gusty.
Backed off and went really patchy around 10.15 then came back in when I was leaving.

Full power 4.2 weather at Rye from about 6:45 and at times I was blown off the water.
