Winters finally over and the wind is back early in spring. Our first social day will on Sunday the 18th September from 10am at Lake Weyba. There will be a BBQ with Burgers & Drinks at lunchtime, if possible bring your own chairs. This is a great opportunity for members to come along and have their say of what they would like out of the club this year. If you have any gear for sale feel free to bring it along. I need to how many are coming for catering so please indicate on this site if you will be attending, hopefully there will be some breeze on the day. For those who haven't been to Lake weyba before you take Eumarella Road off the Sunshine Motorway, the rigging area is opposite 79 Lake Weyba Drive.
Thankyou, Peter Cochran.

After changing daily the forecast seems to have settled at 15-20 kts N-NE possibly up to 25kts later on the afternoon. Should be a great day, I know there are more coming than have indicated on this thread, apparently it is to much effort to let me know!

Thanks Peter and Wind Wanderers. Enjoyed the time together despite the lack of wind. With all of us yesterday huddled under the marquee waiting for wind, I was reminded windsurfers are the eternal optimists . Thanks again for organising the day. Jack

Great day yesterday - always good to get together and talk and learn. I learnt how to rig my Naish 8.8 properly and easily - Thanks heaps Peter for your tips.

Here are a couple of photos

Agree with the prior comments. Despite the weather, was good to catch up under the marquee eating some pretty good burgers.

Managed to get some time on the water in the afternoon - the wind tried to get up, but in the end just managed to get a car full of wet gear with not to much to show for it.

Look forward to the social day.

Thanks again.

Good to get together.
Thanks to the commitee for making the effort, and for everyone for the good company.
Looking forward to the next one.
Cheers, Brad.

Thanks for putting on good day Pete. The hamburgers were worth the trip alone. Lake Weyba is a top spot for these get togethers.
