GPS Team Challenge - Mandurah Mob (WA, Australia)

Lot less wind than yesterday so it was out with the big gear for a quick sail with Shane. Tried to do an hour but wind died a bit during the 2nd half & was only just on the plane for the last 10-15mins. Just managed to squeeze it in & grovelled back to shore.

Still it's been good to get a couple of sails in so I no complain.

At last some serious wind for some good speed, strong, just the way I like it

Solid session, with Jamie, John and Mal.. first hit the wall at 39.55, I wasnt comfortable, changed fin and a bit more outhall and she was on ooh yeaah

Tied for 42 but it was on the limit of dangerous through the chop at the entrance and exit points on the weed bed, cld not go faster, needed a touch more wind or the smaller chops. Great session all together, scary at time, thats when you push yourself.

Thank you Jamie for your friendship, was great to catch up with you, txs for the monster Crayfish too .

Was a great trip, lucky I got 3 forecast within 4 weeks, thats a ripper, sky looked after me again

No PB, but 2 nbs going to my 5 best, thats just great . Very greatfull I did not hurt myself or break any, you cannot bit that!!

Was nice to catch up with ALL, hopefully, see you guys and girls again sometime

Happy Dayyyys

SEnsational Sammy, sounded like challenging conditions, so just because it was windy didnt mean you could automatically get 40kts, sounds like it needed courage as well as skill, Wish I could have shared it with you and tested myself

Ahh, the master at work. Great top speeds, and great strategy, skill and persitance get the rewards of another excellent 5 x 40. Top shelf stuff.

Sorry I could not get back to play Sammy. Still not quite right to sail, but improving very fast now. Safe travels. See you again on the water for another adventure.
