Looks like a good forecast at least for the north of the state. Has anyone got any plans in place? Solid westerly so according to Johnny's spot guide Bell Bouy, Greens may be? Any other options? Road trip for the Southern wave sailing comp?? You know the north is better!!

Bell Buoy will be the go if it's westerly. Greens really needs NW or WNW, westerly is far too gusty. There will be a couple of sailors out in the surf/slop somewhere - will keep you posted.

If its on enough in the morning, I might hit port sorell sandbar, if not, ill wait until Sunday.
The waves still scare me, but I'm slowly coming around..not yet.

Nelson Bay tomorrow, then Eastern Inlet Stanley on Sunday for me. Low tide is around 12 00 on Sunday. Wind will only be 20 to 25 kn though.

Anyone else get out today? Was at Greens for about 2.5hrs. Not much in the way of waves, but over powered on a 5.6m. Sounds better then what you guys got down south.

A few photos from Sunday at Bell Buoy. Not much swell and the wind was a little up and down but the sun was out for some of the day and the water is losing its chill.

Is that an Aero dynamic helmet in the last shot, or your flowing locks

Aerodynamic mate
I hate the peak getting in my field of vision, tightened the straps, and turned it around ... can't say it's not a fashionable sport! and well spotted Fos.
