So far for me been very average season,sailing perth mainly really hoping that it cranks up soon.Whats ya view on the season
This season = great. Seabreezes started early and they were real consistent. Now back to the mundane roaring winter westerlies ![]()
i think it was the worst season in perth 20 years it was always 15k-20ks
when 18k-23k is a starting number
swell we had one that lasted for 3hrs
Close to the worst season in 15 years in Perth, starting to think about getting back into some of my older sports or I'll turn in the the BLOB again![]()
This year hasnt been to bad here.
but then we are happy with 15-20 knots.
The Seasters have been the best we had in a few years.
Hopefully this leads to a good westerlies and seabreezes later
.
Can't complain, got out to sail pretty much whenever there was wind![]()

Not counting the couple of wave sessions, light wind days and a Ledge to Lano's ass woopin I'd rather forget.
Can't complain![]()
Hey Elmo, you missed out speed Sunday, (you know the one, when hardy was in Vic).
How could you forget that magic day?????????
i've sailed nearly every weekend and even got a few sessions in during the week.
to sum up the season in SEQ i haven't used my formula kit in 3 months. ![]()
it's been pretty good.
was in marrawah for the beginning of the season and except for a period of bad swell it was pretty good. and then over to MR where it's been pretty good, windy with average swell. only a couple of big days though. but still on the water a fair bit and still in waves.
Even though this is my off season, it's been the worst year in 15 ![]()
How's this Elmo

Most used sail this summer.......7.8.
Got lots of sailing in just not the favourite kind, surf!!
Absolute crap season in Sydney!!
The latest climate change data indicates a reversal of weather patterns on the Australian continent for several years ie WA weather interchanges with QLD patterns
Been good in SA - two or three sails most weeks (and thats around work and family commitments) used everything from 4.2 (more times this summer than the last two years combined) to 6.4 - 112 skate and the 92 evo.
Some decent swell would be good though- nearly shat meself at first when I went out in some good size waves last week at Aldinga bottleshop. Forgot what it was like.
Don't think you'll get too many complaints from the Adelaide crew.
Interesting what people keep saying about the perth season....
As just 400 km north we've had an unbelievable season, about three perth summers worth squashed into one. Although the locals will all tell you that its "normally much better". Anyway I'm not complaining...
