Morning mate - yeah nights are like Castor Oil , you just know it's evil but it does the deed , $$$$ for retirement at Byron somewhere in my case
Good news for someone on your swell no doubt
this is starting to feel like ground hog day up here on the goldy but, i woke up and can feel adventure in my bones.
I can just feel my bones
feeling great. this non beer lifestyle is proving more fun than i ever remember
i loved working night shift, you cant trust people that sleep at night[}:)]
oh no point going down the coast,everywhere is mental atm
Morning Lads - lets hope TB took his camera to the beach this morning as it looks like it will be pumping at his place
"The SW swell has become solid overnight. There's 6 ft+ at the Coast and Town beaches, with a freshening Westerly offshore wind. The wind is predicted to turn SW later but it might stay Westerly all day, as happened yesterday."
Water temp 15.2C ahhhhhhhhhh
And the report from the other mob
7:06am: Massive conditions this morning and it's semi-clean with 6-7ft of south swell hitting. The max wave height readings in the bay have reached 7m, so there are some monster freak sets hitting from time to time. It will most likely peak later this afternoon and we should see 10ft sets. The wind is blowing quite strong from the west, but it will swing SW soon and remain strong for the day. The swell will ease back a little tomorrow, but still remain very solid until Tuesday night and we will have offshores on Monday and Tuesday - there will be some pumping conditions on offer.
Yes morning Ted , an hour or so away from what could be a very nice day , have a gander at our Metro chart - mmmmmm
Ted you look bloody green , actually yeah I do believe you've got the flu mate , you better go inform Bosshog that you're going home on sickleave forthwith .... yes you're eyes are glassy and you're temperature looks 3 foot higher than normal
Pics dont show how big it is there are some sets breaking out past the channel may be a mile out . Was supprised to see one of our silly knee boarders going out (female)
nice shots TB - its a shame that there is not a bit more north in the wind - with the low tide the Island could have been on! If i was you I would be taking myself on a 45min drive south to the pennisular and checking out Tracks if its big enough or if you are feeling like a hell man Rolling Stones or Annihilation. I love those spots. Big c lean south swell and a westerly wind should set off that whole area.....you might even find yourself some nice ones at Last Chance or all of those reefs around the Spit might be getting enough swell in. Go for a drive for me please And then when you have finished stop in at the hot pools at Nuhaka to thraw out! Next time I am over in NZ I shall be making sure I visit there - you can bring Gizzie down!
Wind is supposed to go sw mate thought it would have been by now it'll be ginormous down there not that stupid sorry looked at Mahanga more do able , I'm saving up brownie points for coast tomorrow Don't think the hot pools are open any more I might be wrong thought they had a big land slide or somthing
Tell you what ted mac said he had a bit of investment capital when I was over there , unsecured to breezers mind you if you droped the ball you'd have asea at your door
The serge in our harbour is that great it's taken the wall out between the harbour and the river
The serge at the boat ramp is going in and out about 40ft
The south swell is that large its sending the hell surge into the harbour took out the sea wall this morning they had to shift all the boats round into the basin
leaving to go up the coast hope it's a bit smaller ,should be off shore . Harbour board say it's the biggest sewll we have had in 8 years .morning all
Morning there TB hope you friend some surfable waved my friend,tomorrow we are hoping for a clean swell here its been a mess most of the week our beach;s have been smashed again,7 mtr drop offs at some.
Chrispy is still on the tables st the casino
i so happy i have awoken to this glorious dayneed water, water. have a sick day boys, and turn up your music fully loud
