Good to know. Been off the water coming up to six weeks. Want to try new board. Got withdrawal symptoms.

Cool mate. Haven't hit the 30 yet. Been blaming it on the gps giving some funny readings. Got the new firmware on it now. Hard truth is probably going to hurt more. Weather Charts only look good for the new 150ltr though. Good for a recovering injury though. Can't wait to have a sail after six weeks. Going to take the Wally just in case.

Thinking of heading to the lake, should I head for boreen point or is there a better launch spot??

Not sure how the wind is up there but you are better to launch from the main beach at Boreen Point as there is probably a fair amount of water after the rain. Go out just to the right of the boat ramp (concrete and then sand) there and keep just left of the yellow X post in the water. After you get past there you are fine to go anywhere.

Dag went out yesterday from Elanda. He must be camped there.
