At last ..... a nice constant 8-10 knot SE. Unfortunately it was brief. No sphincter clenching today.

Jimmy's beach, nsw. Waited till 4 for wind, very different after last few days sailing in the morning. A strom loomed and there was almost no wind. It cleared quickly, enough wind to go out so i did. Just enough to keep me going.
Found wind funneling out near the headland but wasnt game to do much other than tack into it out in the big blue.

Uninspirimg sail with the only real highlights Barry's crash and a meeting with a dolphin.

There have been several unexplained crashes the last 2 days,  maybe Mr D is the answer. 

 Patchy 10-20kts then 10-18kts Budgewoi Lake, NSW, AU - level 0.22 so shallower than normal

Few runs 7.5m turbo- RS4 ( 11ltres) - 24cm FF

 then 7.2m moto

I really felt like a sail at Coal but it was N when i had to make a decision and I was worried it wouldn't come in. Looks like I made the right call.

40 degrees at Warnervale. Bit cooler at 7th with a ENE blowing but at 1st it wasn't getting the lake. It looked 20kts plus but it was  N and it was glassy in the flats.. I needed a guinea pig.  ( or an anenometer  )

I waited until there were obvious gusts in the flats.

The big kit was tiring in the 20kts to the W but nothing much to the E.

 Changed to the smaller sail but of course it had died a bit by now.

 Not bad, but not enough to really bearaway. I got one powered run out into the 30cm rollers to the W for the 2 sec.

 Still a good workout and practise. Time for boardshorts .

Alp and I hit what felt like a rock 3m SW of the marker starpost in the E. Fin survived..

Alp , Jayson?? and me
