BOM forecast:

Sunday
Northerly wind strengthening to 20 to 30 knots early morning, tending west to
northwesterly at similar strength late in the day, then easing to 10 to 15 knots
at night. Waves 1 to 2 metres, decreasing to below 1 metre later.

Am happier with 20 knots than 30. So, Green Point or Bonbeach on Sunday morning?

Always hard to decide where to go on a northerly, Bonbeach is a much nicer beach to sail at but more chance of wind at GP. Couple a weeks ago had a great sail at Bonbeach but still leaning towards GP tommorow. I would say it will be stronger at GP too.

I dont think it would work the wind would be coming off the land. If you are that close GP is a better option, imo

Catch you at GP tomorrow. I'll either be in the black van or desperately treading water in a vain attempt to waterstart after another stacked gybe attempt.

GP finally kicked in about 5:30.. I got there at 6, gusty as hell, seriously inconsistent, but logged as a successful sail... :o)
