Lake George, SA, AU

Woo Hoo a couple of PB's, Lake George delivers, nice peak and 5x jump for me. Don't go poor Bobby no 40, I was so bloody cold, I say bloody cold so I said one last run of which delivered my best peak, just couldn't stop shizering so thought a nice warm hug for my wife might be better than staying at it with no garentees, I know harden up Laughing Happy with things, yesterday was first sail since Tinaroo with Herby before Xmas.

And sorry guys, Lake George is now ruined, I have dredged up every last bit of weed Embarassed

Mobs of thanks to Jimbob, also Red and Bones for the company and the use of Red's rashie, very happy to meet the tree of you. That's it for me, carn't handle the cold, rest day tomorrow then hit the road.

CA SL58, Delta Speed 27, 5.8 Loft Switchblade, Boardies and a Rubber

Big thanks everyone Smile

Cam I'm never that tuned into my gear but the Delta seamed to work ok, Todays setup will easily do 40 right place right time.

Ray I'd love to catch up with you and Gail but we are on way to picking up our pensioner cottage on wheels which was delayed, so we then have to high tail it back home via the inland road.

Andy the plan was to pick up caravan and then wonder up to Buurrum for the event, sadly van was delayed which turned our plans upside down, bugger.

Franga I enjoy a sledge, never hold back.

Hardie we'll do Albany and Sharks Bay next summer, might be warmer, I hope.

Fantastic Firie, glad you had it and with company, makes all the difference. It is ciold though isn't it? With a few days of rain ahead before any wind, you can see why we wanted to get back to the warm.

 

Yep, Shark Bay will be warm for sure, but no garuntees for Albany, I had a full wetty on last week down there.

Thanks again guys.

Johno when I go to your island I might have to leave my gear on the mainland Embarassed Izaak woe is me but a rubber will be to go next time Cry

Gaz my dream is still to do a beach 33 and or a 30 Nm at Holloways, a couple of important numbers for me. I was thinking last night we have no shortage of guys in our team as good or better than me but have not had the chance to sail real flat water, a little unfair I guess.

Hey Bob, don't be so modest.  Kudos to those that are willing (or able) to get to those sailing meccas.  I can only dream about getting your PB speeds but one day...one day. Wink

Firie - it's nice to travel and get these speeds at the flat water spots but also good to catch up and sail with other teams. Sounds like you got the worst of the Victorians(Red), the rest of them aren't as bad.

Snags - I'm nearly finished this job. Just been down south for a family birthday, back in Cairns now and back to W.A. next week.

Na Snags on way for a Monday pickup. Son tells me heaps of rain at home also, after we left a tree fell on house and caved roof in, lucky I have young fella to sort it while we're away. Looking forward to leaving the rain and cyclones behind us

Red, Chris agrees with you but after a few rums.

No blue balls Choc, more like being neutered, defiently nothing swinging around down there Embarassed Looked at map and thought of visiting you and family but too little notice and wrong way I guess, we'll call in with the pentioner cottage next time.

Over and out Laughing
