New speed run that James has sailed on and we have permission to use it. Over 800m long and looks the goods. We sussed it out the other day. Nothing stopping the wind and should blow the rite direction most of the time as it is in Cressy where the wind funnels the same way most days.
That looks great, always seems to be windy at Cressy especially on a hot day...keen to give it a go..whats the go with access and location Izaak
All good for access ect. The owner would prefer to only have a few sailors on it and cars parked on the road side, only 20m away anyway.
That's what we like to hear - new speed strip!! That's a pretty long run!! Looks good. What's the best wind direction (or what's the dam wall angle)?
Freshwater won't make too much difference. It's equivalent to about 3.5 kg extra body weight for a 100 kg person.
On my (too) numerous trips up north to work I've been turning off at Ross and going through Cressy, taking the back road to Deloraine. (anything to get off that "highway").
Anyway, between Ross and Cressy there's an awesome looking long dam, looks great for NW to SW, and very very long.
Cressy I could make it to Cressy.
I can see it now, Sim (wife) lets go for a drive in the country.. look what is that, is that Dave and Izaak sailing
.
Well now that we are here, I should say hi, look, how lucky is this, I have my gear with me.Russ
I dunno I've been feeling sick ever since I sailed Dorans last Wednesday, got a nice bullet of it up my nose.
