Did ya get a sail in yesterday Zub??? I spent the day studying, looks like ya might score in a few days time though.

So ya made it home in one peice Daz, good to hear. Well ya left on the right day the winds pretty much crapped out since ya left. mind you we had a great arvo with Zub, Burt and the boys Sunday at Coro's. Swell was up and wind was strong, real good 4.2 m weather.

Hows this i'm sailing out to the bommy at the back of coro's underpowered on a 3.7m and a near mast high white water rolls intowards me. But before I get completely steam rolled and end up swimming for a while i noticed a poor sod bodysurfing a mast high wave out at the bommy beside his gear. Man that bloke copped a flogging washed all the way in from out the back, must of been a solid 6-8 min swim in large waves.

Marty's glassing in the fin box and mast track as we speak into his new high wind board; 35 cm long, 5L in volume, $7.20 Target Piping Hot special!!! You should see what he has his eye on at the tip shop...54L, wooden Starboard waveboard thing...should look good as a bbq base!!!
