Noice little arvo sesh at the mud pit with B2. Pretty tough work at times with the breeze dropping in and out and being very southerly. Learnt a lot about upwind sailing today which was worth it in its self.
Again, the stronger breeze was way out wide, half way to Arlington just about, but worth the travel time. Once again, the run back to the beach was fraught with dropouts and I mis timed my run in back to the car by 5 mins as it had completely dried up about 500m out - slow dredge back in.
Used: Motion, WT72, 43WT, 7.8 ODM2 - Sun was out and the wildlife was prevalent - Bait fish, Turtles , every where.

Fun little arvo sesh off the mudpit with B1. We were forced dredge out a LONG way out to find the breeze.... A lot of effort put in to staying upwind to prevent any walks of shame.
May have been a little easier with the bigger gear... Shooda, wooda, cooda...
But with that being said, some pretty impressive numbers from B1 today considering the conditions!  - nice one mate, bout time!! 
Gotta love being on holidays!

Bit of a hit out after 3 weeks physio for my dodgy shoulder. Rigged to a reasonable looking breeze, then as I hit the water at 2.30pm the breeze gradually faded to 10 knots. Pumped my way onto the plane for a few runs then slogged the last run home. Best enjoy the CA SL70 while it lasts, it will need to go to a good home once I pick up the WT72 Silver bullet from the freight depot on Monday. CA70, Ezzy Lion 7.5, Talon 42 then Select 45.
