Goolwa, SA.

First spin on the new Falcon 113 - I like it.  Slightly more high wind orientated than the 111.  The small amount of tail kick and increased vee in the tail was nice in the goolwa chop.  Started on the 6.2/S11 35 but was a bit underdone so threw up the 7.8.  Fun to get out for my monthly sail!

Fanatic Falcon 113 - RSR E3 6.2/7.8 - Select S11 35/39 - wind gusty 15-25.

Most fun and greatest day ever on slalom boardCool.  After speed the last 2 days today was for fun and fun it wasSmile.  Had some exciting drag racing with Sam for 1/2 hour.  Nothing better than close dog fights with a mate.  Runs were 3 - 5 km legs - choppy at times but flat in alot of placesSmile.  Thought i might have a pb hour and i just made it.  Happy with Nautical mile tooSmile.  What a weekend windy every day.  Can't wait for next time...   

Lake George - 15 - 25 knots.

Isonic 86 / 6.3m blade and 29cm s07.

I would also like to thank Onboard for organising some sponsors and prizes. Thnking you. Heard the turnout was pretty good at Robe for the waves with a very high standard for the conditions.

Day 3 Lake Geage - Suffering some post fiasco let down from yesterday and dithering about going out as thinking would be to windy and another overcast day. Downhauled my trusty 6.3 Blade a tad more got my butt onto the water around 11am and then just kept on doing some hours. It was a fantastic day, sun coming out, more than 12 people sailing around, Speed Demons doing there thing around all parts of the Lake:-)

At different times during the day had some company, doing some laps with Sam then Hamma both of them bloody fast. I recon Hamma could have gotten an easy distance PB in. Hope so?

I felt i was doing a fair amount of upwind work on starboard tacks and maybe could have run freer for an even better hour. Hell it was fun regardless. The SSE direction with gybing at either end in dead flat and in sub knee deep water made turns easy fro me:-) Its interesting to note the 5 degree wind shifts reflected in the tracks and all my best NM's and peaks were on port tacks (west end) and how all my best Alpha's were all on the East side (bearing off for speed)

Put the effort in to try for 300 kms today but the wind swithed off, buggerCry I think everyone had a great time today regardless of it not being nuclear lol.

Blistered up both feet from todays effort so today was my last session. Been outstanding here in Lake Gearge with water levels to drop more into summer and even longer sections of flat water. How good will this be later this year?

Good to have crew out to sail with. really bummed as i missed the better wind in the morning as had to have a sleep being on nights,

had a heap of runs on the misslie but as I only had a 5.0 was underdone all weekend, Frown was a bugger to go through a panel in my 5.8 just before our speed weekend but shit happens,

SmileThe guys all had a ball and have now worked out how good it is down here. good to meet you pj.

Smile always good to sail with Hamma and his bro and also the boggy boys Carl and Sam.

Hopefully next year I wont be on nights and can have a few beers around the fire after.

Kimba, Good to see you got out for a ride. What is Goolwa like these days? No carp and water level. Joe, you kept the new board a secret.  Looks good mate - nice colour schemeCool.

Karl,PJ great weekend you guys got great results. missed a good afternoon Sunday.  Can you tell me why my GPS wont download two separate sessions for the same day, the posted results for Sat are only my short morning run .Even though the arvo session is on the card I cant seem to download it, I did turn the GPS off between sessions and it came up with "new session" when I turned it back on and obviously recorded but cant get it to post, appreciate any ideas.  Thanks Geoff

Hi Geoff,

Turn gps on and go into menu 'Data logger' and save to card.  Remove card and try again.  If you turned the gps off in the middle of the day there should be 2 x files.

Hope this helps,

Cheers.

Nice PB's Guys - sounds like it was a fantastic trip.  Goolwa was nice, the water is high(no beach at Rankines) and I only saw 1 headless carp - from the SEAL that was hanging around.  The barrage is open and there is a mix of fresh and salt water.  It was interesting trying to feel any differences in the gear as you sailed from one to the other.  Where's your session gone Joe.  I have more pics if you want them.
