Pencil Fri afternoon in... could be a nice late afternoon NE at Baggies. Will update closer to the time.

Thursday is the day, will be blown out by friday?

Maybe but some bright spark has scheduled a sharepoint training session on Thurs. Yawwwn.

I'm in! yay, I may get on the water for the first time in waaay to long! I will hopefullt leave PMB just after 2:30. What is your timing James/Cliff?

Hey, there's a voice from the wilderness. Good to hear from you, Ike. I'm afraid I will try to get on the road a bit earlier... probably about 12.30 to arrive about 1.30. Can give you a report when I get there.

I see it's been blowing today but the swell forecast was pretty big. Wonder what it was like. Hopefully it is sailable tomorrow.

It was raining and mizz in Hillcrest today. I think today ( Thurs ) might have been rained out.
Hopefully tomorrow delivers.

Ik make sure you remember to pack everything, mast, sail, extension, HARNESS... It's been a while.
Give us a shout if you need help rigging ..

Um, ja, what do you call the things you stand on again;)

Disappointing.

It was blowing 15.5 knots gusting to 21 when I measured it so a bit on the light side. We rigged the big sails but there wasn't quite enough wind for the conditions. Waves were pretty big in close-out sets breaking on a shallow bank at low tide. The inside was flat but white water and currents making it difficult to plane out through the break consistently.

Reuben gave it a good go and made the most of what was rideable before packing it in. Cliff and I then had a few runs out and I spent most of my time out beyond the backline.

So, a bit disappointing in the end but no breakages and a nice warm afternoon at the beach is seldom unwelcome.

PS, thanks to Isaac and Cliff for using their skills to break into my car to get my keys out. Also thanks to mini-kiter Connor for being small enough to squeeze through the back window.
