Budgewoi Lake, NSW, AU. CA92, 5.0, 18ff. 
Enough power to go across the flats and carve some turns. Good to see the 3 on the dial, smile, good fun. 
Writing this at Brandon close right now a doghouse is blowing around in old mates flappy front yard, it’s windy now, not atall earlier.

5-24kts WNW - W Budgewoi Lake, NSW, AU level 0. 20 - 21

5m Mach 2 - RS1 ( 80ltres) - 16.5cms FF

Got there and rigged the 5.5m and 90ltres to have some gybe practice before it kicked in ( 15 - 30kts) but then it kicked in so away with that and rerigged

Well I could have had the 5.5m up but it was nice to be a bit underdone and not be hanging on for grim death for once..A bigger sail would have been better for bearaways.. Acres of flats but thick weed , bergs and shallow water meant you had to be careful.

 I even tried a few gybes..nothing special ( I grabbed the mast which I don't usually do) but most were dry if I didn't end up on the bottom.

1st and only one out then Mitch from Brandon, Mobsy and Mike and Greg F.

 The most I've enjoyed a westerly all season..Laughing

I did one slow catapult into the sail . I wasn't in the straps taking off and a gust got me. Didn't seem a big deal at the time but my right shoulder is complaining atm.

 Last sail for a couple of months so I'm glad I enjoyed it..Tongue out
