Lake Illawarra, NSW, AU  A bit quiet down on the lake, enough wind for the 7.7 Hellcat.  Fanatic Falcon, 46cm JP fin.

Another fun day in paradise (Primbee anyway). Flat water with a reasonable constant westerly. No-one out, but caught up with Keef & Jase (hello!) coming out when I was going in. Perfect conditions for the NM.

Yes looks like you did get the best wind.  Still laying down theose pbs at a great rate! I sailed on the windward side of the sandbar, fin a bit long for the Primbee side.  We only have toi sail on the same day to add to our point score, so we've done well.

It's a big lake Keef, I was also out between 3 and 4.  I found your tracks on KA72. I thought I could see a few sails Primbee way, Jase must have been out at that time also?  I launched from the yacht club, testing out how hard it is to tack up to the top racing mark up the channel. It's not easy, much easier to bash across the weed banks with a weed fin. 

 

Here's our tracks, where would we be without google earth?
