Melville Beach, WA, AU.  Headed to Safety bay but was full of kiters, saw that Mandurah was reading 11knots which meant was probably about 14 so headed to Coodanup.  Sure enough nice steady 14-15 knot breeze, magic, sun out and longs runs to Boundary island imagined... so quickly rigged 7.8.  By the time rigged wind had dropped to 10knots so rigged 8.6 then by the time that was rigged wind had disappeared.   Procrastinated a while while watching Meville go to 15knots and then 18.   Since no sign of any wind rigged down and headed to Melville, still reading 15knots on arrival but certainly didn't look like it.  Rigged 8.6 and headed out to check..tiny little corridor of wind was all..did a few laps but nothing.  Headed home to take up knitting but those pesky arrows stayed yellow...they shifted a bit more west so figured might be better so tried again.  Of course the arrows turned red at that point.  Went out with 28FF but beached on sandbar so tried 22FF, got going a couple of times but was all too hard for little reward.  Should have played dodge with the kiters..
