Damn damn damn damn damn. I just got back home. Left home, realised I forgot something, drove back, got it (went through my checklist to make sure I had everything this time) and headed down to Manly. Repaired sail with some tape, rigged up went to get into wetsuit... no wetsuit. Damn damn damn.
Paul offered a shorty suit but I reckoned it would be too cold so, packed up and drove the 50mins back home. I gotta move closer or get a better system.

And it looked so nice out on the water too.

sigh, maybe tomorrow.

Was Ok when I first got there at about 1pm (about 15 knots), slowly got worse as the day went on (no more that 10 knots after 3pm).

Here's hoping for better tomorrow

I put everything in one area. Then just check nothing is left before I go.
