Peel Inlet, WA, AU

Sorry Stroppo didn't get your msg till this morning so ended up having a quick solo blast in the inlet inbetween changing nappies  First sail in a couple of months and found myself losing alot of ground in the conditions so had a nice walk of shame from cobblers back to Novara

Some good wind out there so I am looking fwd to the results rolling in for the Mob.... 

Peel Inlet, WA, AU  Early am sesh, great wind, except for direction, too onshore which made water v choppy, and just not prepared to risk injury like I used too, particularly wen I know there's spots where I can sail fast without risking serious injury, getting very very soft as I get older   Tr-7 5.9m iSo 87, 30.4kts display I hate Doppler   Heard the crew got skunked at the Cheese Factory, and are having a second session now in Mandurah, good luck boyz!!

Bloody hell who would have thunk sailing twice in the one week

Who would have thunk it would be on the HIGH WIND kit OMG I was scared having to rig that smaller sail

Was not expecting a sail, quite honestly I was expecting to be skunked, Besides Typhiod Bernie at work had infected me with a f'ken Lurgi and I was feeling like what the guys sailed in at Cheese graters this morning.

Got down to Cobblers to find the boys rigging to do a (redemption) clean the cheese graters crap of the gear sail.

Rigged up the small kit and went out, Twas a bit choppy in places but overall it was a whole lotta fun, some good runs with Glen and Tom out there, I wasn't feeling up to the long runs which the boys were doing just content with the Nm legs.

A bit gusty but thoroughly enjoyable sail, still feel like crap but content after a good blast with the boys.

5.8m koncept, 90 rrd x-fire, 26 pepefoil. Early start at cheesegraters, with Stroppo, Crasher, Shane and Tomski. Couple of Pinna's beat us all on to the water and got the interest up. Had a good couple of runs but the wind dropped around 11:00. Bugger. Still, it's gybing heaven if the breeze manages to stay in...

Go the carrot cake     Be interesting to see what the rest of the boys got at the redemption sail.

SNAPPY TOM!! Reporting on 'the adventure'.

Big team building exercise today!! Took the road trip to Yoyo's. Great turnout, the only bloke that did the no show was the f#*king wind. Nice to  Still had a heap of laughs and we were blessed by some sensational Carrot Cake.

The mast snapping jinx is still with me, with another severne mast letting go on me about 20 m from the bank (new blue line 430, 2 sessions old). Not over downhauled, not hot, and with a heap of witnesses. Very angry.

Rescued the day with a gear wash / sail at Cobblers. Well powered, very choppy, but super fun. We were even blessed with a visit from Mary Poppins and some dirty flasher......
