Sounds good! Starboard tack jumping skills may be a bit rusty though..

Out of curiosity anyone sailed goolwa in a northerly? It's going o be 2-3ft there on Sunday.

Goolwa probably a 50/50. Mid is prob a 95%. Your call.

Flat water on the wrong tack. I think I will give it a miss....

North Haven is no bells beach!

Any wind yet. Looks like it doesn't pick up until after lunch

On the mid, the swell has gone from nothing to maybe it will get there. Wind has gone from nothing to maybe. There are a few white caps around. NNE 8-12 with intermittant 1/2 ft sets

Quick update ... I dropped past at about midday and there were about 15 on the water ... looked about 15 knots near shore, but out a bit deeper it looked like about half the guys were planing. A few chest-height waves.

I came back at 2pm and had a quick sail for an hour .. no waves really (at least with my skills) .. but planing most of the time.

what a lovely day of sailing. Thanks everyone. Maybe catch some hailstones while you are sailing today...

Thanks to all involved in organising this gathering! Great photos Dave, and thanks for the sausages Bert. Probably learnt the most from watching the Open heat - how to milk some great moves from sometimes mediocre conditions.
