Now we'll all be wanting to do this (well maybe not the riding Jaws bit). An interesting article also about the technology involved. Hafta post the link separate due to limited pc skills Vid & link from the zone.

Blame the floods. Spent the best part of 14 hrs a day working these last 10 days. Time for a break.

They could paddle to the island for day break. Long lefts at sunrise on a dredging low tide day. Would be unreal.

Sounds good Ted ("They could paddle to the island for day break. Long lefts at sunrise on a dredging low tide day. Would be unreal."
Probably will have to have an early morning peek in that direction. Supposed to be northeasterly wind tonight & in the morning. And low tide as well

Our weapons of choice.....pic snapped after today's surf at pipe
