Here is the proposed course that I drafted up on my iPad for next Sunday's WV Classic at Parkdale. The course allows for all types of windsurfers to enter. It will be separate to the yacht racing. We will have a number of races, some will include multiple laps including a relay with one lap per team member. More details to follow.

A query for windjunky

I see three different forecasts for wind on Sunday afternoon:

Windguru - 4 knot southerly
Seabreeze - 15 knot ESE
BoM - 10-15 SE, SW

What's your thoughts? and... is there any chance the 15-25 knot E in the morning could hang around? i.e. the whole system moves slower.

I'm a big fan of www.bom.gov.au/marine/wind.shtml?state=vic ...
Think no matter how you slice and dice it at the moment, its looking 15 knots max with a big ole High meandering along just to our south. As Joel says, maybe a seabreeze on current outlooks given it will be sunny but the E flow will try hard to work against it around Parkdale.
Lets cross fingers...

Forecast for wind! (Where did that come from?)

Forecast for Sunday until midnight

Easterly 20 to 30 knots, easing to 20 knots early morning, the tending south to southeast 15 to 20 knots in the middle of the day and east to southeasterly 10 to 15 knots in the evening.
