Abit of an anticlimax when huey decided to fade away. Quite a hard slog trying to sail the 98 underfinned but at least the smooth was mesmerising.

left at 4am and met up with Boz in Kojanup both amped with the forecast we expected to deliver. It looked promising but a little lighter than expected so rigged the Manta 128lt and vapor 7.1 CL Delta 20 for a warm up session expecting to rig the 5.6 with the speedboard shortly. Lunny, Flatchat, Chris Porter, soon arrived to a dropping wind. Not the epic blow we expected. Stayed on the big gear and thought an hour may work but lulls prevented a solid session. Not often you can't get planning off the start of the naughty run.  Thought I would go for distance but that too was cut short as the wind dropped to 1-5knots. Had a nice chat with Lunny and Flatchat out in the bay as the wind swung E and got warmer.  Good to see Shane and Steve the locals too. Seeing the lightening with Lunny and Boz on the way home was the most epic part of the day.  Not as expected but still a top day.

Bugger all breeze so i waited, chatted, waited more then figured Woody, Boz and Tim were cruising around so it was worth a shot.

The smooth reminded me a lot of foiling. Such a nice feeling.

Still worth the adventure meeting up with everyone plus the rain and lightning was a great change.

I do wonder though if the RBT on the way home was a Random Boz Test set up by Fangy to keep Boz further out of his patch. Hmmm?

Everything but wind, Fangys must have pepered the bay with cobblers in an attempt to discourage the Pinnas from the southern waters, the RBT on the way home was also a valliant attempt as the Fangy fences seem to have no impact to stop the Peskyss from travelling the country side in search of wind, it seems Fangy must have bribed the weather people to give a better than expected report for Albany to lure the Pinnas away from his home turf and he suceeded to lure 5 Pinnas away. Still good fun nice the catch up with the Albany boiys and a great bunch of Pinnas, alas not to be this time looks like one more 800k round trip before the end of the monthLaughing

Didnt bring the fishing gear Anita, but Chris P and Boz seem to have hooked a cobbler each. Chris was in alot of pain and so was Boz’s cobbler!

Looks like you made the most of what was there Mark. Great work on the distance.

You scored us some points anyway

Scumbag that I am, even I would wouldn't stoop to cobbler stings Boz, they just hurt too much to ever be funny. Very sorry to hear you got pinged by one Boz.

I am sending a 'Get Well Soon' card to the cobbler that got poisoned with a dose of Boznium. Let me know if you want me to add your name to the card.

Edit: There is note much room left on the card, so be quick.

Great to see you all down in the cold south. I hope the wind behaves better on your next trips. Forecasts of frontal winds here seem particlarly unreliable, in fact all weather forecasts here seem to be hard to get right. I suspect the proximity to the southern ocean means the wind and rain can be 10 or more kms further north or south and change things radically.
