Mackay, QLD, AU

Nice sail on the last of the tide. Started 85L Naish, 5.9 Koyote, then wind dropped until it was a battle to get planing. Swapped for the CA58 and Tribal Weed Speed 25 as the water shallowed. Aside from slicing my toe open on the tip of the fin before I got into the water, I am extremely impressed with this fin. Even did the job upwind, underpoweered in small chop. Can't wait to unleash in bit more breeze.

iS107, 7.0RBlade, 38 CL Sl2 - Lammermoor Beach, QLD, AU ESE 14-19kn

Have been out west last two days and missed a decent chance for sail Friday.  Got up early this morning and finished my work on site in Barcaldine and was away by 9.45.  Jumped in the car and did the 650 km in 6h 15min including having to go through bloody Rocky.  On the water at 4.30 for what can only be described as the best possible way to end a pretty shitty day.  Wind was never there for the 7.0 but it was already rigged from my last sail on the 2nd.

Port Douglas, QLD, AU

The 'Freemantel Doctor' visited Port Douglas this arvo and blessed us with epic sailing conditions on small gear..By the time i made it down the beach big Andrew was already out blasting on his' free ride weapon' with a 6m sail cranked down hard..He did a good solid hr and pulled up before he started breaking shit..Which i thought was a good move as he had already had a good sail...I hit the water on 97lt' Isonic turbo duck' with 5.4m north rig cranked down hard and was running a 35cm select fin..seemed like the perfect combo in a rough sea and a very solid 25kt breeze..The Duck was totaly cool all arvo even when put under pressure..The inner core of one harness line snapped rather early in the session so had to spend the next 2hrs nursing a rooted harness line and had to stay off the gas a bit on out ward runs.. dropped a couple of gybes in rather trying conditions which i can live with..went over the handle bars once ,hit some very nasty waves flat chat and lost it big time, total human error, and a badly damaged ego..am forced to live with that..was clocking up some good km  and  having some serious fun but harness line finally snapped just on sun down so it was game over for me and the Duck...Not happy with Chinook harness lines .Have snapped 3 of them this season, someone is gunna cop some abuse over this..Was nice to have a good blast on small gear for a change...Cheers Ed..

Jaffa, 6.4 Koncept, Talon 32, Holloways.

Probably should have gone out on the big board but Jaffa is just to much fun.

Quick sail in between work around the house.
