Very hard going through the chop at safety bay today, gusts well over 30, happy with the results given the conditions wish I had been able to head elsewhere, going to be some epic speeds posted tonight I think

only one kite out and the max sailors was about 5 at one stage people would show up come out do one or two runs then go i again

Mission Accomplished, feel redeemed, went out to do an Alpha PB, and cracked that on the iSo 86, Gastra Vapor 5.5m, and LE Weed 27cm, got 37.14 on the dial with that board, its a sweetie!!!!!!!!  Then put the Missile S to work, immediately 37.6 on dial then I saw a 38.1ish37.08 38.84 39.01, and decided not to push my luck, after I saw Matt totally destroy his board, fin mast , but at least he's OK, there was 40kts for the taking today, and 2 guyz took it!!!!!!!  I wish Sam was back, hope he is and went to Point Walter, really a day for PB's!!!!!!!1

It was really flukey wind that as swinging all over the place.

The tide was really low, it looked like someone had pulled the plug. Spent the time fanging square up and down the main boat channel in mirror smooth water. Pity its only 10m's wide and 600m long. Overall happy with my speed saling square to the wind.

Main mission today was to test the mod to the new speed board, ( I cut off the hump at the back to increase stability), passed with flying colours. The board is now much more comfortable, and even gybes better.

Gave me a PB for hardie's run, 26.15 on the dial.

Looks like I came in too soon, the inside run was really hotting up, heard a couple of very loud YEHAASSSSS from guess who.

 

Went out early with the old board to do some alphas before the wind got too strong, should have done a few more, might have matched hardie's fantastic effort.

got off work early,told the boss had an appointment with the doctor from fremantleLaughing,mellvile looked shallow so decided to go to wally world.Wow what a turn out the place was packed to the gills with sailors,and no smelly kitersWink,'twas very shallow and I was nicking the bottom on many runs,best speed done on my first run,starting to think i need something smaller in the board/fin department to get to my goal of a 40.Great arvo with a great crowd to sail with.A big thimbs up to all those with pb's.

PS.I think slowy must have borrowed a time machine this morning going 6 months into the future and bringing some interesting sails back and proudly showing us what they can doCool.

The Muppet dance was well and truly danced tonight YyyyyyeeeeeeaaaaaahhhhhaaaaarrrrrggggghhhhhhhhhCoolCoolCoolCoolCool

Got down to watch Hardz and Decrep laying down some nice gybes and when the gusts hit them mid turn some good Elmo's Tongue out, thought this could be game on.

Rigged the speed board and put the chopbuster on as it looked fairly bumpy, when the boys came in for a break they gave us the low down on a line I would never have thunk ofSurprised, Huge Thanks GuysCoolCoolCoolCool

Followed Snides (I sacrificed him to see if he'd stack it) and saw the normal run was diabolical. so I went back to where the H & D recommended, first run ooooooooooo very nice, second run 37+ 3rd run 38+, watched Matt go down hard sailing inside the posts from what I hear destroying most of his kit, sincerely hope he's ok. Back at the start Hardz has got a 38.9 on the DialCoolCoolCoolCool The Big Fella's got his Mojo Back, Farken AwesomeCoolCoolCoolCool 

Head of down the run 37+ get of out side the post move my foot and got tagged in the heal by a cobblerYell fortunately it's only a little one, sail back to the start Tim's already got a 40 on the dial, F**k the foot it'll may me make my back foot lighter, take of bear away gust hits beautifull slingshot runCoolCoolCoolCoolCoolCoolCoolCoolCool  40.7? on the dialCoolCoolCoolCoolCoolCoolCoolCool yopu little ripper

Got another 40.4 and a 40.2 on the dialCoolCoolCoolCoolCoolCool the gusts were huge the slingshot was great fun and realy wide so much so that I brown trousered myself trying to turn the board up wind a few times when it was still trying to go down wind on the gustSurprised

Had some great Muppet moments as the was a bit of weed clumping near the start of the high speed bit, I hit these a few times and fortunately it didn't want to catapult you just spun out the fin, I can say catagorically the Speed 54 handles a dream going sideways at 38+knots, had at least 3 of these happen which defiantely gave me some major spincter excersizeWink

This is a true 2 sec PB for me as earlier one was done with trackpoints (the joys of Garmin) which only had a on the dial speed of 39knots so if Nebs can reset the previous PB that would be sweet

Well happy little Muppet, Huge Congrats to Hardz for his Alpha PB, awesome stuff considering the windCoolCoolCoolCoolCool

Well looking for more speed certainly took its toll on me and my gear last night.I hit a rock in the shallows doing 30. My fin got pushed up into my board and smashed the deck. Somehow the nose is smashed up also. Broke my 460 mast also. I felt OK walking with my stuff back in and it was'nt untill I got half way home I had the most intense pain to the right of my back bone. As things got worse during the evening it was making me hurl several times. Lucky Bec was over and took me to the hospital. Got the jab on the butt and other lollies. At this point the pain was so extreme I was willing to try anything. It seems I've torn a mussel. So things feel a lot better now and I'm having a day at home. Be careful out there!Yell

Elmo's day yesterday, he wanted that 40kts bad, he knew it was on, and sailed like a man possessed, I watched him for 30mins, and he looked bloody fast!!!!!!!!!  However, thankyou for the compliments on my Alpha, been working on it a while, and I'm ecstatic, 25kts the nextAlpha milestone

Good to see the Elmster back on top!  Your track looks scary, must have been very shallow where you were sailing?

And nice Alpha Hardie.

Very shallow today, even shallower than when hardie and I put the current markers in),

Crasher and I marked the rock that hardie and I hit, just a bit further out than the outside marker.

Crasher took some pics and we had an unsuccesful  look for matt's mast.

 

I'm fairly confident now, that we have the outside of the rock garden marked. I think Matt must have strayed over the line. The poles can be very hard to see if the sun is in the wrong direction.

I've almost finished repairing the back of the fin box, fin and the bottom of the board.

Then it's pour some foam into the void behind the box and then repair the nose and rear deck.
