Weyba, full power 7.7 warp, jp108, zulu 36. Nice session fastest runs were the last 3, go figure.

Lake Cootharaba, QLD, AU

A multitude of sailors resulting in very crowded rigging  and parking but great to see more bodies. Started vigorously but faded later with a windshift from NE  ish to the north and even sl west. Change of gear after 30 min was a good move until it eased and shifted.

Lake Cootharaba, One of those NEs that is 10 kts stronger on eastern side than western side. Was to much for 7.8 on east and struggled to get back on plane only after gybing 2/3 way across. tried over outhauling 7.8 but feels awful,,, gutless and twitchy with no downwind speed. Should have rigged a 7 on wider board.     Isonic113 [67wide] / 32 Weedweapon / 7.8 O/d

Lake Cootharaba 114/7.8  Best day I have had on the lake for ages. So many sailors on the lake. Vikings, Pie Rats, M.B mob and even a couple of Bridesmaids. Happy days indeed.

Just checked Paul, and it all looks good. Nice session by the way.

Here's the google Earth overlay from GPSspeadreader

 

I didn't realise the lake was so wide, easy to get a NM in.

And here's a look at your alpha,

You could have gone a tad wider to increase your ave speed.

don't think I've ever seen 100.00km as the average team score before! You guys must have worked very hard to organise that
