Well i didn't think this was going to happen this morning when when i left, but we got a really consistant wind today for a winter northerly, did a bit of exploring early on then i started to crank out some km's. felt really comfy today, easy back on forth sailing. I wanted to keep sailing but the wind said otherwise, was trying for 200. next time...

Jacques convinced me to try Swan Bay again and for the firs time in a while he was right. Started on Sonic 85 and KA Koncept 6.4 bt dogged around a bit, Jacques went in to change to his big board but the wind filled in a bit and got 10 minutes of poweed up sailing. Came in and Jacques convinced me to get on my big slalom and go exploring. Lent this board to him last week and of course didnt think about footstraps. After about 15-20 minutes of adjusting got some normalilty back and then started just cruising back and forth across the bay.

Got tired and came in for a snack and a recharge, Jacques just keep cranking out the km. Wind had fille in so back to the 85 and a few more runs before the arms were shot..

Great stuff on the PBs Jacques! They just keep on coming. Swan Bay certainly is a lovely place for smooth long distance cruising.

Red, HTFU! Tongue out

Red, Saw you at work in Leopold the other day. You and your colleagues do an admirable job under what at times must be distressing circumstances.

So go out and pull 170km and then call an ambulance, but you might have to drive it yourself.
