Wave gear on Green Is.Rough /chop from East & occ from North -horrible conditions .Tides were all wrong for the time we had on the island.

RRD hardcore wave 5.8alpha Maui ultra fin wave 24.

Couldnt find a line /couldnt gybe /some nasty crashes  ...

Late afternoon would have been brilliant over the Eastern Section -wind gusting to 38knots as we were leaving & enough water over reef to sail safely ...

A friendly get together at Bowen with with the tvl and Mackay guys, tried for a decent hour but wind was fading for the little sail, had about 18-22 knots wind mostly and not as choppy as Mackay. Will have to get some hot tips off Herb and Lyn and Gaz as how to get over 100 ks in a day??

 

Loft Lipwave 5.7, JP excite 105, freespeed 32.

HSD 3Metre long  Rapid fire 6.25 Clifford Fin 65 x 360. Put my arse through the rail of my  board and a big lump on my head, but a very fun sail besides.

Kurrimine Beach rough and windy.  This old body very tired.    Same for Lyn and Hoppy who decided to give it a miss.    I could only hack it for 45 minutes.     5.9 Loft 02 and the only board I had with me.

This photo of Simmo may be the last of that sail. He finished the day off by going through it.

Congrats Sailpilot with the PB's. Sorry I couldn't meet FNQM members and others from around Australia at Green Island Speed Week as I'm trying to sell my boat and had a rush of lookers and test sailors at that time.

Cheers

Congrats Phil, You had a good day.      As for K's, you should take Gaz's advice and talk to Lyn.    Maybe she will tell you how to get a rigger and caddy rolled into one.Undecided
