Looks like a decent NE forecast for this afternoon. If I can get things under control here at work I'll try and get down to Baggies around 1.30ish, depending how things look.

We had a great sail at baggies today. Conditions were just about perfect. Good jumps, few wave rides and lots of wind.
Got there around 10ish and sailed till about 2pm. Sun was shining which made it a super day out.

Sailors were: Paul, Reuben, Dave, Cliff and Ben Foster from JHB.
Wind: 18 to 25knts

I must take my hat off to the vaalie from JHB. Ben Foster. He had some pretty old kit. ( see gallery ) an old board with a one piece mast and cloth gaastra sail that had seen a few sessions in it's day. But to our amazement Ben managed to make it out past backline and complete a few laps around the tankers before returning to the beach. Nice..
Hey Bronks boyz, where have you been hiding this guy?


Sorry you couldn't make it Jamo..

Bones, myself and Neil had a good sail at Midmar. The NW was similar to Saturday but dropped off a bit sooner. Nice and sunny on 5.x sails.
