About to head down to Verona Sands with Steve (down past Cygnet). Hopefully a bit of wind down there.

What was going on yesterday. Gave up on the idea of any wind about 3.45pm so went MTBing. Out on the ride saw which looked like a southerly sea breeze coming in into Fredrick Henry, then rode back passed Dorans on the way home and it was blowing SW...weird day....anyone see the shark? or is it a hoax?

Was going to post these on sunday, but didn't get around to it. This was the wind that blowing into Verona Sands. Chris was a local who had just moved back to Tassie and regularly sails down this way on his wave gear. That's Huon Island just off the shore. Wind was 15-20knots.

Yep it was quite windy, in the photos that was around 18-20 knots. Doesn't look as windy in the photos as what it actually was.

Had not thought of it that way, good point Kaz,
perhaps we should bring some bull sharks down from QLD and release them in there.[}:)]
