Current forecast shows nothing below 25 knots on the north coast from Monday to Saturday.

Ready to jump through those windows of opportunity!

Looks like - Monday Greens - Tuesday Bakers/Bellbuoy - Wednesday Bakers/Bellbuoy - Thursday Bakers/Bellbuoy - Friday Greens - Saturday Greens - Sunday Launceston General Hospital... or the morgue...

On current forecast Greens on Friday is looking like the pick of the week to me too.

Houston, you should be able to trust one of the two of us...you can decide which one.

I'll post later in the week, after the forecast has changed 12 more times.

Have fun down there you lot!!!

Looking good for a possible sail @ carlton on Thursday, got the day off so here's hoping but as Damo say's it's winter.
Marion today- I'm guessing gusty & horrible.

Nice day at the Greens Beach today, with few of us out.
Waves were mushy and not so big, but wind was howling over 40 knots in the gusts.

Sorry for our "Northern Exposure" fellow (to stay anonymous) who missed day due to the, allegedly, phobia of wave sailing on the wrong tack!!!

Wild goose chase today in the south.
I've got a meeting at Latrobe Wed should get out at 2.30 could hit Bakers by 3.30 seek in an hour before dark.
I'll be back up with Relic on Friday for Greens, am I right in saying could be pretty big swell by then?

Low head is currently 23 gusting to 27 westerly. The forecast is to increase to a little over 30 knots. Shaping up to be a good day at Bell Buoy.
