5694 days ago A bit of fun at mellvile first off with JP 73 prowave and thefly 4.5 with a trashed wave fin. managed a 28.5kts and a few big jumps.
Then moved to Point walter with the rest of the crew. Mistakenly i left my 5.7 hellcat at home so instead i was on JP slalomIV 70L, 5.1 the fly and 28cm JP fin. Unfortunatly spent lots of time swimming but still had fun. In future i'll cart all my kit around with me!!!

5693 days ago Pretty gnarley out in the middle of the river at Lucky Bay but thats where the wind was.
Had a good session anyway. After I saw Toby and told Benny he needed a lift I sailed down to Pelli Point. The wind shadow was HUGE. Had to sail for the sandbar and walk in. 30knots in the middle of the river 5 knots at Pelli carpark if that!
Benny was pleased he didn't have to post his pathetic effort,thanks to Toby and Bertie.Also I ate all but one slice of the pizza on the way home.(Benny had to drive)

5688 days ago Hi, i will tell you a tale of a 2 hr cruise.
So the 4 pm graph and look at the car window was 10-15 knots- you beauty.
Flying start and all good then it started to go so Wrong !! I thought I would get it under control and then it just picked up more...many water starts later, almost got it going, dunked again and again,
Now its 25 knots the light fading and my hope of rescue- ZIP ! So at somewhere West of Applecross, north of the radio tower, south of Nedlands Yacht Club
Yep, I dumped the sail and decided to paddle for shore, squalls increasing to white out, energy levels falling captain, boy it was a long way ( probably about 2km, too slow for the gps, then the walk to the car park!!)
Thanks to Dan and Jet for the ride back to Nedlands from Apple cross.( Not as cross as the Mrs !)
Found the sail this morning, bout 300m from where I washed up- intact no rips and it secretly whispered to me "can we do that again?"
Hypersonic 105, Gaastra 5.5, Drake 340- so wrong !!
