Green Island, QLD, AU

Fun sail at Green with Ed and Toody on Toodys hire gear, not a lot of wind when we arrived so rigged the 7.8 and Futura 121.

Fun board to sail in the choppy stuff but would have been better with the straps in the outer positions.

Used 2013 Futura 121 Overdrive R4 7.8 and Drake venom 44.. Cool

Another short sail, wind was very how you going at first but I was lucky to score a couple of nice gusts, giving me my peak and before Jason arived.

I had a very enjoyable sail with the big fella, we had a few nice downwinders with him right up my tail pipe, boy when he gets used to a slalom board I'm in trouble CoolTongue out

Carbon Art SL58, 34 Venom, 6.8 Loft Switchblade, boardies and no f'en stinger suit (yet).

Looked at sea breeze wind didn't look great, headed off to the beach with just my big board. I get there and firie is out on his 58 carbonart. Well a quick drive home and back again to Holloways saw me out on my 58 carbonart. Great fun to sail just seemed to eat up the chop. Never really hit my straps in the speed department, I was really just happy to be out on the small board. Firie was out so we played about in the bay for a while lots of fun.

6.8 switchblade, 58 carbonart.

Green Island, QLD, AU Went to green with Captain Kel and Toody..Walked to eastern end of island and rigged 6.6m sail the biggest i took over. Wandered back to Toodies shed with a bit of a long face as wind was evey much on the soft side..Toody kindly offered me a 117 Isonic to try in the lighter winds,Was keen to have a go as i am interested in purchasing it as a light wind screamer to replace my very tired old AHD which i have had forever..After a sail retune i had a good fun blast and saw the potential this board has as a fast light wind weapon..Had a quick pit stop for lunch and watch the wind freshen up a bit,!01 Falcon was sitting on the beach with big fin in it..So with a fully powered up sail got cranking and was having a good fun blast. there wasn't enough wind to get any speed happening.But Was very confortable in 'cruise mode 'and having fun, sea was choppy enough to keep you on your toes, so decided to do a few km..Kind of lost track of time out there, pulled up for a quick drink and saw it ws time to go home...Hey Toody many thanks for lend of board will talk more about it soon..Kel can't rember if  T shirts are paid for or not can you let me know..Thanks mate..A fun day at Green Island with good company ,and the good wife had dinner on the table when i got home..That is as good as it gets ..Cheers Ed

I wondered if someone was going to take a risk in heading over - looked like the tide was going to be to high. Sounded like it was enjoyable in the sadistic sense Kel. Good to see you made the effort. Its not often we get to catch up with members such as Toody. Big hello goes out to the island boys.
