Melville Beach, WA, AU

At last a chance to get wet. Caught up with Terry and Benny. Reasonable session even if i couldn't get tuned satisfactorily.

Not many alpha attempts as i kept stopping to retune. Frustrating.

Point Walter, WA, AU

 

Made a bad call and went to Point Walter in search of some fast runs. All I found was a weedy sandbar, super gusty wind and a sh_t load of stink boats kicking up wake. Some days don't pan the way you want them to, but that's ok, because when they do they will stand out!

A great days sailing. The wind was reasonably consistent (for Melville) and rig felt balanced (after a minor tweak to harness lines and one footstrap). Nice to get out on the water with Baldy and catch up with Benny again.

shooting the strip plus a couple of runs down to sh_tsville caught up with Benny Snides and a few others

I will agree with SP it was gusty with snot weed and stick boats but what he left out was there was someone out there on an overdrive and a huge ear to ear grin Laughing Just love powering into those gybes at full speed and still powered up out the other sideSurprisedSurprisedSurprised and a bit ofYell........

Everyone say "Hi!" to our new team member - Stacey. I warned her about you all! Look out for her and look after her.

Thanks to who ever pointed her our way.

Hi everyone,

Knowing Stacey from work I can inform you all that his trunk is full of junk (confirmrd by his wife) so we are definately not welcoming a girl to our team! The good news is, he is a nice fella and was a sponsored speed sailer in the UK a number of years ago. Another couple of cyliners to the fine tuned Wannabee intergallactic engine. Interplanetary domination is only a few parsecs away Obi One.Surprised

Staceys missus reckons he is a bit of a studmuffin!Cool  Once all the windsurfing women realise he has become a foundation member of the wannabees we're going to be over run with foxy female wannabee prospects for sure.LaughingLaughingLaughing

34.07.Thought you may have been having GT troubles again it took you so long to post. That gave the wannabees a nice little nudge up the table.

Dont women throw themselves at you Troutty?

They always seem to be throwing stuff at me or throwing my stuff out on "Bring Out Your Dead Day"Embarassed

Nice speed there Troutty, sounds like you enjoyed the sail.

As for you Baldy, given I'm in front on all but one category if I was trying to stay close it meant that I was slowing down so I didn't leave you behind. Be prepared next sail I might not be so nice. Especially now the new (actually 2nd hand - but new to me) board deal has been done. I expect to pick up a sonic 85 later this week (and hopefully soon after a couple of pb's).

Welcome aboard Stacey
