Where is every one windsurfing this weekend?

The weather forecast looks to be a bit light for the weekend. There could be some wave sailing at Sandy Point if the Easterly wind kicks in. Keep an eye out on Seabreeze forum.
www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Windsurfing/Victoria/Vic-Wave-series-2/


Refer to the extract from BOM forecast below for Port Philip Bay.

Local Waters Forecast for Port Phillip
Issued at 5:10 am EDT on Friday 8 October 2010

Forecast for Saturday
Winds: Variable wind to 10 knots and afternoon seabreezes to 15 knots. Seas: Below 0.5 metres.

Forecast for Sunday
Winds: East to southeasterly 5 to 10 knots increasing to around 15 knots during the afternoon before tending northeasterly at 10 to 15 knots during the evening. Seas: Around 0.5 metres.

Please note; this is not a WV event and this post is to be used as information only. The intent of this post is for windsurfers to post where they could be going to windsurf this weekend and for other windsurfers to possible come and join them.

sandy point i am going to practise me dale cook chop hops in the NE wind there. The ramps are small, but you can get good air off them cause the water running up to the bits of chop is flat. So ya get some huge air off the little tackers

Lol give up Ginger Pom, many have tried.

Going to get my first offshore sail for the season on my Hypersonic at Mornington. Boardshorts should be fine if I don't fall in.

I read it as "18 knots at inverloch. I am tossing. Where should I go? The pit or inverloch?"

You did well today Jman, given that you came to windsurfing with no surfing background. I think you are ready to tackle KGB in the surf now!
