There's a bunch of us busting to hit Marrawah this month when the forecast is right, Jez, Brett, Jordon, Buzzy, Morgan, Damien, Fluro, Fos, me for a start from the south, Luka will no doubt sniff it out.....................who else is cummin??
The weather should be pretty tame probably no big BOL days but that will be cool for a change............looking forward to sunny days on a seabreeze

Conditions today (from BOM) are a light breeze at Cape Grim and Marrawah with a low swell.

20 to 30 minutes drive down the coast (where i am) to Bluff or Sundown its a solid 25 knots SSW with about 2.5M swell.

We have been getting these conditions a lot lately as the High Pressure systems approach.
