Looking like a good set up for Carlton for those that can sneak away good wind and should be good swell

Not epic but not bad with I think 10 sailors and Shorty being the first time in the waves...........wind as usual pretty fickle but sets were up to head high and soft so no collateral damage.....Bretski and Windcranker got there early and got the best session...or so they say.....gawd Brett just doesn't shut up he just went on an on an on about how good it was

Not bad, but not epic! 5 in total. Bit gusty, but overall better than working like Clarky!! Quack Quack!! Good desicion South of Oatlands! Save the next Southern trip till later Ant and crew. (Sorry Buzzy to mention "A" word). Sailed on 4.5m all day with periods of 45 minutes at a time in good conditions. Hamish C is really starting to look more or so in control of his forwards!! Apart from once again, the upside down star jump on the horizon with no gear in hand!!

Looking forward to seeing Grevill's loops.
Greenie you think you should take credit for coaching this young lad, well I've know him since he was born and I remember when I was changing his nappy I looked into the little fella's eyes and said one day you'll be a champion just like me..................... and now he's pulling off forwards..................he musta listened how cool is that

Ants biggest wave ride of the day title remains intact, clearly 1m bigger than the regular 1/2 masters that were coming ever 5mins a beast of a wave a rose from the depths to be slayed by the Antman . As gear4 and I watched from the carpark ant carved under the feathering lip and with a hint of tail slide dropped not in the monsters jaws but skilfully exited the raging white water , no more free entertainment for us gone is the human sea food splatter of those big set crashes

Unfortunately 75 photos taken in the no wind hour between 3,30 and 4,30 pm when the photographer happened to turn up and it blew like crazy just after she left (Murphy's law )that's also when ant caught his demon wave
