Just over a week to go now mate, yea had a bit of a crack on Sunday, not bad but need some longer walls to realy give it a good test. Im going to daily updates when Im over there so I write about the boards and conditions and how many times I get smashed ect plus sum picks.

Yeah it should be good doggie. I know a lot of boats dont have a lot of work (very quiet this year) from now onwards so it should be fairly quiet whilst your out there. Enjoy mate, pull in!
