So who was on the water today at Portland ? Seen you out their on myway back home from Geelong . Wish I had my gear with me!!

There were a couple of us off nuns beach for a bit. The wind dropped out so pulled the pin early. Shook some cobwebs off the gear and my arms though.

Thought it mite have been you ! Good to get the cobwebs off the gear , shame about the wind tho! The last few times I've been down port Mac it's been the same , get out on the water and get a couple of good runs and then the wind drops and makes it crap! I've just bought a bigger sail to try and capitalize on those days. I only get the chance to sail once a week so can't be fussy with conditions

Once a week?! That's luxury! ;-) I'm lucky to have sailed 3 times since easter! :-(

Northerlies generally drop out mid arvo around here - today it decided to pull the pin early. I worked out how unfit I am, regardless of the amount of suping I've been doing.

Yea my fitness is not good eather ! Most weeks come home and pass out on the couch! You will be buggerd and struggling to hold on then get a good run and think just one more , then one more and it keeps going! So the sup gets a workout then? Will have to try catch up with you next time I'm over

Hey Boris it was pretty good at beachport on sunday got about 4 hours in fully powered on the little slalom board with a 5.0, was sailing out lake george on the spit the water level is very good already and the spit speed runs will be on like donkey kong in a couple more weeks. will have to have a sail with you once it warms up a bit more.
i have an old 6.7 pryde if you want it as well.

Jimbob, let me know (in advance if possible) when it looks like it's on and I'll throw the gear in and come for a drive. :-)

Hi jimbob, I thought you only sailed in the warmer months. Sounds good about the water level, I'm looking forwood to having a sail on the lake. I'm sure the conditions are a lot better than what I've had down the bay! Thanks for the offer on the sail but I have a old 6.5 and have just bought a new 7.5 ncx, got a good runout deal better than buying used! If you head out on the water again you will have to let me know, I normally go Saturday after work if their is wind. Getting some good planning runs in the harness now and can't get enough of it!
