The Mother Swan was cold, brown and moody today - choppy as buggery too. 10 - 30+ knots. Claude had been there since before noon so we can expect some KMs. Claude, Snides and I focussed on the essentials for a month topper! Would not discount ES assult on the 31st though!

Should know in an hour or so where we sit!

my standard combo - 95 Kinetic, 6.6 Koncept 08, 33 Falcon F1. GT 31 Doppler.

nice sess wave sailing at melville ,went with 25 with a plan for the hour,when we got there claude the machine had been out most of the day! so all of a sudden a assalt on the distance was on the cards...not sure how many k's the machine got,but i am guessing his mileage was up around 90 odd.

was a little surprised at how slow my speed was but i guess tail walking all over the place can give a false sense of speed.

good to see mineral and chris p pounding away for pinnas as well.

 

ca 50,kon 5.8,falcon 27

 

nice alpha pedro!!

Great to get out sailing again in 20-25knt wind with occasional 30 knt gust , rigged 6.1 and mast snapped before I hit the water , thats two in two weeks , maybe a bad batch of 430's , so went with new CR 6.7 , Isonic 86 , 29 F1 , effortless sailing with that combo , fun day with Captain Pete and Snides also enjoying the cold weather .

GT31 doppler.

Great going Snides - my survival hour effort is superfluous methinks. True grit when ya hands were frozen to go that extra 15 or so KMs. Team man!

Claude - where are you man! The suspense is killing me!

Awesome performance by Claude. He was master of the swan today on his 6.7 code red. Absolutely smoking.

Snides

I sailed too far into lucky bay on a good gust. Kinda stood there waiting for a gust to sail out for while - wallowed for several minutes! Had another wallow moment [minutes] when I went in too close over near Squady trying to escape a super gust!

Snides, I feel so much better reading that you had four counts of water aerobicsLaughing 

I was feeling a right DH when I came unstack on my second run and jammed my boom adjuster to full collapse on one side. Ended my session, but feel better knowing that I wasn't alone performing cunning stuntsWink

Bloody hell you guys along with MM gave the table a good roughing up today. Be interesting to see Claude's numbers

Surprised Bloody hell, I spoke to Claude, when I was packing up and he hadn't even raised a bloody sweat after that effort. Must be, along with Decrepit, one of the fittest buggers going in WA GTC.Cool

Also dragged SRM into top spot for the month. Well done you guysSmile

Fantastic effort guys, I could only manage 50 odd Kms, don't know how you do 3 X that.

Your NM has bumped us into equal 3rd, well done! Nail biting stuff to see if WA can stay 1st and =3rd.
