Just wondering whether anyone has done any speedsailing inside the reef at Port Gregory. Looks great although it is very isolated (well I suppose it is WA).
Keep goin another ***kms and u'll find the best spots in WA, PG is gusty, Choppy, the wind never gets in, when the tide is low the reef is so high out of water it blocks the wind, when a big wind the swell is massive blocking the wind further and swell rolls into bay, can be 35kts behind the reef and 15 to 20 inside the reef, and there are bombies which eat ya fins Spent a lotta time there waiting 4 its full potential to be delivered, and it never happens
, I'll never go back, I've found the spot, but aint gonna be broadcast over internet, so dont ask, coz dont wanna spend the rest of my life in jail,.......I wanna wsurf for next 20ytrs, done enuff time (3yrs) in prisons not very nice palces (woorooloo, canning vale, and casurina)
working as psych
GEEZ HARDIE i thought you walked with a swagger beacuse you were a member of the 40knts club..........
After ya drop ya first bar of soap in the showers, ya neva eva pick it up again, certainly alters ya walkin style 4life
I thought was best to pick it up as was a potential hazard and some one might slip and get hurt
Well a form of a slip occurred and it fn hurt
Thanks Hardie, and I understand you keeping "that that cannot be named" to yourself. Might not be so Lucky and Dirk may have to stick to shell collecting or watching the dolphins???? [could be way off base mind you]
Slowy and I trudged through mud, climbed over rocks and swam across canals to try sailing along the levees in the pink salt-lakes you can see in that Google Earth image.
It was really crap - the water is less than 30cm deep and the bottom is completely flat and rock hard. It was unsailable.
Dan E mentioned that he had a crack at sailing inside the reef but as Hardie said, the waves wreck the wind.
That's the beauty of Sandy Point isn't it; the wind comes over a few hundred metres of flat sand bar and is fully attached all the way to the surface by the time it hits your sail.
