Primbee, NSW, AU   Well, the high cloud just would not move from over the lake, the Sun

                              made the move and it was clear skies after 12.00. A WSW gusting over 20kts

                              came in for a perfect afternoon, some super smooth sections. Still looking for Tex!

Primbee, NSW, AU W up to high 20's in the gusts. Swinging around and gusty.

A pretty inconsistent wind, but it was good when it was on. Flatter water than yesterday and more people out. Sunny, warm & windy - sounds like paradiseCool.

The iS80 is very comfortable!

Good to see Terry out and about.

Great, great afternoon but still cant crack that 32 kts 2 sec barrier despite all effort. Hopefully there are few more westerly flat water days still to come this season.

Got home after work and collecting kids at 6pm, checked the latest observation on the BOM, chucked the gear in the car, got to Primbee at 6:30pm, changed my mind about 5 times, Bushy told me to rig a 7.2 first and then told me to go back home, so I rigged the 7.2 and hit the water at 7pm. There was just enough to plane all the time with a few gusts to keep me interested but the wind that was there finally died just as it was getting dark. Packed up by 8pm.

Have to second that Eckas. Spent the arvo fighting the urge to park the truck in the yard and bung on some dodgy illness and head for the water.

Good on ya fellas, looked like a magic day. Congrats on the PB Matt! Well Done!

Nice session there guys.  Hope you can make it to our GPS Freerace event this weekend down in the Illawarra.  Will be sailing from the Illawarra Yacht Club on your front doorstep if wind goes southerly.  Otherwise will be based from Gerroa.  Check out the thread on Seabreeze NSW section.  See you there.
