Ok ok I'm not hardcore wavesailing man anymore (more like bump and jump sailor in the day) but I would still like to have a wave sail down south over Easter. Any sugestion on locations and is anyone keen to join me in the waves?
Cheers
Russ
Thanks Houston
I think it will be gps sailing down south friday Marion? Pit water? and early Saturday Dorans now
monday and tuesday look very good up north
and no wind down South
I could be keen for some or all days, just need to see what the wind is going to do closer to Friday/weekend. When its fronts like this the forecast can change so quickly.. Looking forward to hopefully a REALLY good sail somewhere
Hope you had a good one Russ! Would rather be doing that than working all easter!
Hopefully next weekend might be good.
No wind at Marion later this arvo, I called in on the way back from Nubeena about 4.30pm and there wasnt much at all!
Tomorrow morning really early is looking good though
Hey guys,
Looks like we'll be doing an impromptu trip to Sandford Sun/Mon to visit some friends, and it looks like I'll be painfully close to spots that I think you guys sail.
I've got my new-old Futura 111 (thanks Jez) that I'll be a full noob on, so thought I might pack it, just in case I get a leave pass for an hour or two and get some water time standing beside it.
So ideally I'd like something onshore and shallow real close to sandford. Mortimer Bay looks super close to where we'll be, and from space (google earth) looks quite shallow? Also, I know it as Ralphs bay, but is this the same spot that everyone calls Dorans Road?
What about Cremorne Lagoon? Now I really want to do up a guide to Tassie Spots, how and where would I launch in Cremorne?
Hopefully I might bump into some of you - although I have no idea even when and if I'll get on the water.
Appreciate any advice.
Johnny
Hello John
cremore lagoon is accessed down Honeywood drive ( it is on your left as you go down the South Arm hwy. Has to be southerly - south east to sail here.
Mortimer bay and dorans road ( ralphs bay) are different spots. Dorans is sailed in nw to sw. Mortimers is more south- south west.
All three places are shallow and easy places to sail and within 5 minutes of each other. Wear booties as oysters are nasty on bear feet!
PS. Mortimers is a lumpy track accessed off Gellibrand drive.
Jez can be your tour guide if you need one , part of the package!!..
What a blast at Dorans Yesterday
good fun for all
now lookig forward to a Sunday sail
Can you sail this arvo now Russ
I'm keen for a blast around lunchtime or after, should get some wind keen to use the new 135 litre but may be a bit windy 
Jez, we could try the new footless booties dad has, called ankle warmers
god bless and good morning
but still keen to Monday.
Called passed dorans this arvo to check out the spots and spent 20 mins watching 4guys cutting a serious caper!
Got some pretty good photos I think too, a couple of some guy doing some nice chop jumps :-)
..sorry I missed the attempted forward loop!
I'll put some up when I get home tomorrow.
Sorry jez, not sure I'll get on the water as I've sustained some gluteal injuries whilst sitting stationary at goaty hill wine and jazz festival yesterday..,.never leave your feet on the esky for longer than 2 hours or you end up stretching hammies, and glutes far too much!
Drove into Mortimer bay, looked wicked flat too compared to dorans, I know it's got to be full tide though yea?
Bloody itching to get on the futura dammit!
Just a couple of the guys - Sorry, I have no idea who you are, I couldn't hang around.
I do have a couple more of each sailer if you want them I can either upload them or email them to you?
I also took some video, nothing special though, let me know if you want it guys.
Hopefully these images work - first time adding images here.
Cheers
Johnny
Johnny pity you couldn't get out while you were down, we have some great spots down here Yesterday Dorans certainly wasnt at its best as the wind was a bit to much from the North which makes it really inconsistent and gutsty 
Would be great if you could put the rest of the pics up and even the video
Yea, you guys seem to have some awesome spots! It's a shame its so far away, to get back into some good sailing, especially with a new board it would be ideal.
Is there any etiquette on uploading images here, or you guys happy with me just to upload them all?
Apologies for the unedited video and the wind, but it's watch-able enough! :-)
