I passed by this lake last week, and wondered whether it had ever been sailboarded on. The day I was there, the conditions looked so sweet - wide open runs, plenty of grass on which to park and rig, steady ~15-20 knot breeze from NW, no obvious shallow parts or drowned trees, no buildings or hills around the perimeter to disturb the air flow.

Sod's law meant that I had no sailing gear with me at the time.

Other lakes I saw in that area didn't seem to have the same potential for sailing. So, is Boga a "hot spot" in northern Victoria?


(As an aside, called in to the Catalina flying boat museum on the lake edge - well worth a visit)

I think I attempted to windsurf on it 25 years ago when I was at a sailing regatta there, I think there is a sailing club there so it should be windsufable, unless I am mistaken, which is possible as it was a while ago, plus sometimes I dream things that are so realistic that I don't know if they have happened or not, takes me ages to figure out if it was a real event or just a dream, sometimes I have dreams about re-occurring dreams, then I don't know if I have had a re-occurring dream or just had a dream about them.
