SW, SSW, WSW are all good directions for Marawah. and W can be great fun at Greens. NWand N are crap. NE, ENE can be ok but gusty and very swell dependant.
Jez with SW, WSW there are no better options than heading to Marawah. This post is for Marawah...... there is no other option


Come on mate, dont be like that


Like what? Man up Jez

Looks like an almost perfect 5 day forecast for Marrawah.
Unfortunately I'll be on the east coast where it's also looking good.
Friendly Beaches on fri will be NE 20-25knts and the bar-way at Swanwick should be the go if the South Westerlies eventuate. ENJOY!!.

Geez the forecast has changed. Now Mon/Tues look mirror calm. All the fronts seem to be going through at night.....but who knows it's only Wednesday, things could change all over again before then.

Hey Damo - with those sailmaking skills of yours I am sure you'd be able to fix Bretts tents. Although perhaps you should re-cut them for him. A bit less luff round perhaps for less power ? Also rig them with a bit more downhaul and outhaul

Anyway, sound like conditions are awesome up there. Us dedicated couch surfers are looking forward to the photos !

Cheers
Marlon

I have some not so action shots of BOL on Monday. Our guinea pig from WA dogging in off-shore wind and the rest of the mob watching.
