It looks like we are at the right end of the state again!
Pinkies crossed for a good blow tomorrow - Low tide at a leisurely 1.40pm
Oh YEAH!
Suppose I'll roll up 
Even though that half assed chook farmer said the wind would go to waste if I turned up..... 
I'll just try my best to sail in 25-30 knots in sunny conditions, and think, well hey this is not Mexico, but hey, I'm going forward again, and again and again, oh yeah so is Clarky, Luka, Hamish (If he didn't have to work
Well looks like thrd weekend in a row down south, crossshore and swell.
15 minutes from Hobart, we all love the sensation!!!
Greenie don't feel bad about yourself mate stay positive stay pumped be proud of your achievements life is not all about winning its about trying and that's what you're good at and above all don't EVER EVER let anyone say you're as dumb as you look we love you mate and that's what count
Coach 
Plenty of fun today at Bell Buoy. We found out where all the sand go. It is in the water, creating a long sandbar that has very good and consistent waves breaking on a low tide. Greenie, Geoff, Rafa and me had 4 hours of sailing with waves getting bigger and wind getting stronger throughout the afternoon.
Greenie showed up today in his new buggy, he mentioned that he needs it as he is getting into the farm business. He can't stop talking about how he admires the lifestyle farmers from the south of Tassie enjoy 
The new farm beast set a cracking pace to bell buoy. Around 14 minutes.
The last pic you can almost see the excitement on my face inside the cab, as I set up for once again a stalled forward. Many thanks to my support team Luka, Clarky, Raffa and that Southern Egg farmer Thanks Coach!!
Port tact sailing away from rocks looks to be "holding"a lot further out than usual southern invasion is on the cards next suitable weather pattern
At dead low we had not quite 16.5cm fin depth across the sandbar. The bar also had some nice shape in that there was a gentle gutter half way along that made the waves ramp up fairly mechanically to the RHS of that shot, and with glassy smooth faces too. Unfortunately the wind was changeable on Saturday, so less than ideal. The potential was certainly there though, and yes, those rocks are pretty gnarly, and have cost all of us some fins I think this winter.
