Is everyone ready for the next two days at Sandstone? Perfect tides and good wind forecast

Bugger it! This working is getting in the way.

Wow, what a day for sailing at Sandstone today. 7.5m sails at first in the smooth/shallow conditions then change to 6.5, get beaten up and drop to 5.5 and then I was out and it was 4m+ conditions for the guys still left sailing as the wind just got stronger and stronger through the afternoon. Great turnout too, with Johnny B, Brad, Tony and myself kicking off mid morning; then Denis, Mark, and a new couple from the Sunny Coast (who sail super well), JV Jonno and even Jeffery showed up to get slapped around by 25+ winds and a bit of chop. I'm knocked up, I gotta sail more

If you've got tomorrow off Dag you know where you need to be.

Hope all you buggers have fun.

I forgot to mention BJ, he was out there for the first time in a while too and will be no doubt dropping Nurofens last night like a teenager dropping party smarties.

I reckon saturday arvo looks most promising for Turners Dag, when is your "weekend" these days?

^^ Dags now thats gonna hurt. In a good way though.

Well that was fun, and somewhat painful.
Turners was well and truely on yesterday.
Big km's from Bone's and Dags. Dennis and Pope John wisely retired early.
I crashed out after doing "one more run!"
Jeff made his usual late Cameo and tested just how shallow you can go with a Fangy fin.
Think he may be feeling a bit second hand this morning too.
Same again next weekend??? Unless Adam is back and the wind disappears!

Adam must be back.
Tomorrow's a big question mark.
Might drag the Wally up there anyway for some exercise and practice.
Who's up for it? Brad? Tony?

There's a few of us sailing the Wally's and LTs at Victoria Point tomorrow from 10:30 at Orana Esplanade. I think Frank and Jinxie are even putting sausage on the barbie for anyone who shows up!

Yes I am back

Hi Seabreezers,
Your forecast is looking better up there tomorrow. Any of you planning to sail Turners Camp/Ningi Creek if so can you reply here or PM me.
Would be good to get an idea of where the shallow bits are and catch up...

Bone's said..
Yes i will be keen if there is wind.

Start holidays on monday. Looks good from Tuesday onwards. May make a late (usual) appearance after work Saturday

cheers Jeff
