waricle (20666km):
8 hours ago Point Grey, WA, AU CA66 LRB 5.6 TD24 Started out sunny with a moderate to fresh NW on a nice tide and reasonably flat water. Rob was already there and had already sailed and was having a break.
Anita arrived followed by Boz and Richo and Anita and I launched.
The tide was about a foot higher than yesterday so it wasn't dead smooth.
I had a few runs and decided to have lunch and change the fin to the 19 Fangy.
I had just finished lunch when a 20 minute white squall hit and was followed by a long s/w two knot skunking.
Anita was on the other side of Robert's bay and the boys were in Austen Bay.
I sat in the back of my car eating a sandwich and sipping coffee watching and waiting for the sailors to walk/dredge their way back home.
Eventually everyone returned and I had packed up. The breeze started to come back and Boz and Rob were back out. Anita and Richo called it.
I'm very glad I came in when I did. Interesting day....
