If the windsurfers from Sandy Pt all the way to FNQ build an ark maybe we can float/steer it to where some sunshine and wind MIGHT be happening because its been crap around here for ages. Reading other SB posts it seems some wind needs to be had otherwise grievous bodily harm will become the norm.
C'mon Huey, PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love to Qwerts but work rules at the moment. Somehow I just knew one of you buggers that lives down that-a-way would crush the rest of us.
Tried beans, veggies and extra doses of beer but so far nothing, help!!!

I went home at lunch time and grabbed my van so that can head down to the Bay straight after I have finished work. Looks like those F&^%ing storm clouds are brewing again! Hope I didn't jinx it

Blame it on the stars

Whatever you do

Sailed Corrimal again today qwerty. Was sketchy as yesterday, half mast and 5-25kts haha, got rinsed a few times, gave up; wind was so inconsistent. Works well in that SW though and I reckon our secret spot would have been epic if it was more S.

Today was okay though, probably 15kts, light but you could get out, still half mast and some nice waves. came in after about 45min though because those storm clouds looked wild!

Wife keeps asking what's wrong

I've only had one real sail since Nov 15th, and I only work 2 in 8 days

Worst year in 15

Went to WA for a week, missed it by that much

Oh woe is me

Winter is comming, got my fingers crossed
