Kurrimine Beach, 15 - 20 kts, Naish 120FW, 7.0 Infinity, Naish 36

 Wind was flukey to start with but filled in nicely at the change of tide. Nice to sail in sunshine and clear water again. Wind had a bit more east in it and was able to keep out wide heading south then some nice runs north then bear off a little once near the northern sand bar where the water flattened quite a bit. I think I need a new body as this one fagged out pretty fast today and chucked it in when the legs started to cramp up.And the dog wanted to go home, she was bored.

Was thinking of heading up to GI to catch up with some of the Mob tomorrow but think I need a bit more time getting the fitness up before venturing over there. Still breathing so LG

Lake Tinaroo, QLD, AU......Went out after lunch on my 116l Screamer and 5.9m Loft 02.     Picked a good time to go out as the wind was less gusty for a while.

Lake Tinaroo, QLD, AU.....Went out before lunch in typical up and down wind  (a lot of standing up and then getting shoulders ripped out).

After lunch I rigged for Lyn and went back out, but was a bit knackered by this.....6.6m Loft 02 and 120l S/cross.

Probably could have stayed out a bit longer and logged up a few more Ks, but if I do too many the guns will never catch up  

Hey Rossco,  Tinaroo is getting a bit chilly and we are thinking more about Kurrimine.

Got down to beach at about 4o'clock wind was honking hard the only kite to be seen was in the top of a coca nut tree,always a good sign..Rigged 6.6m north sail on101 futura 38cm nitro fin.was maxed out all arvo sea was very rough and it was well over 20kts out the back and not much softer in close..tried to light it up a couple of times out the back but it has very rough and a few handling problems started to happen..had one good' wipe out' but nothing broke and missed a few gybes due to my poor sailing ablity..was happy to be able to hang to 6.6msail in well over 20kts,over all a good after work blast..Cheers Ed..

Green Island, CA53, Koncept 6.4, Vector Delta 25, 15-20 knots.

Another awesome day at the island. So much easier to work out how to sail again when there is wind. LG

Nice little sail after work, first time out on my new 2012 Isonic 90 and Overdrive 6.7. Great little board for the holliways messy chocolate soup, had lots of fun with the ramps that seem to pop up whenever you bearaway. My old Isonic used to feel horrable in the air, but this one is much more controllable and easier to launch when you want or to keep it down and blast off the wind.

Rigged the new Overdrive to the spec's on the bag and it felt spot on without any tweeking.

No one else out but still great Fun!

Herby. Thinking you might be getting ready for the nannual migration down this way. Was really nice today and some old guy was getting fish out of the stinger net and pulled out a bearly legal barra. Nice.

I hope to go back tomorrow and hopefully take a smaller board, but that's sure to bugger things. See what happens.

Keep those K's rolling in

Ed - Tides are crap at the moment but still better than sailing the beaches.

Not sure how long I will be around.
