had a bit of fun today, didnt get too serious, 4.7 aerotech, rrd hardcore wave board 21.5 mfc in the first session then F2, 31 select in the afternoon session, wind had holes in it and it died off in the arvie.

best place to get the speed up was in the big swell.

Kurrimine BeachWind picked up about 11.30am.    very up and down but pleasant and easy sailing.    Lucky to get a lend of HoppyBob's

Screamer 116l and used 6.6m sail.    On water for 160 minutes straight and then wind completely died.



Herby (12064km):

Kurrimine with Lyn, Hoppy, Freddie and Nathan.....Freddie and Nathan arrived too late and missed most of the session.

I think that max wind would have been 15 Knots.

Highlight for my day was to sail close to a 10 or 11 ft Hammerhead. (similar Dorsel to Lyns Select Ride Fin)   Very careful jibes after that.

Fatboy with 7 m

HSD 3 Metre, Hot 6.9, Clifford Fin 320 x 70

First sail in six weeks and felt very unfit. Couldn't get enough downhaul on the 6.9 and was totally overpowered when  out into Mission Bay.

Green Is-rigged small with 6.2rsr ca47 venom26 then maui ultra 24 (after mishap with reef)Wind was solid 20-25 on arrival but no flat water for 1st 2 hrs .As the eastern run became viable the wind retreated ...

Whales have arrived !!!

Venom was rock solid in the nasty chop & powered up conditions

Ran out of time to rerig but a 7.2 & 100l board would have been ideal for the latter 2 hrs

Another PB Junior, well done mate Cool

Lyn, Herby, Rossco and maybe Hoppy are down at Kurrimine, I'm sure they've had a good sail today.

Mike I did my back in working around the house (lesson there ha), Doc gave me time off work and said no sailing but bugger it I might test it at the Yorkey's supercross track tomorrow Undecided

Firie, just as I thought then you was snoozinTongue out and now you have really confused me you said that strange word "working" whats that?Wink

Back injury's are a bugger, try to get it right before you head back out. Lingering back problems are a pain in the coit if they dont come good before you test them out. Smile

Nice NM's Locky and Pete. Congrats.

Hey Hoppy, probably wouldn't have been that long in the water if you knew that mother was cruising around, but hopefully Herb scared it off.

Good to see a few on the water.

Thanks for the congrats, Firie, Rossco and Gaz.Laughing Congrats Locky just pipped me for the NM. Past sessions I always misjudged the distance needed for a NM before gybing.  This time I kept going till the legs gave up.
