Lake George, SA, AU. patrik f-race 120, Loft rb 5.6, 23 pepe. I was asked if i'd be Guinea. Yes, i obliged. Heading out not knowing what to expect, a bit on edge hearing stories of evil sounding nor westers, at this point in my career, after experiencing lovley (slighlty mind blowing) conditions, and being aware that the bath tub was rapidly draining, still out there alone waiting for other condenders to come out, the slightest awkward gusts were felt as the wind came more west and i high tailed it outta there.

Coal Point, NSW, AU  Super fun foil in a perfect NE.  Worked up to Belmont bay with Andy and Nic who is doing really well on the wing . Then a quick trip to Marmong .

15 - 25kts + WNW The Spit Lake George, SA, AU

5.5m Mach2- RS2 ( 90ltre) - 22cms Atomic - A 4.5m or 5m on the 80 would have been better,

 A lot of effort for not much reward.

Now I know why I don't sail W at LG.

I should have relied on Predictwind. Most forecasts were saying it would only get to 16- 17kts. PW said gusting to 25kts..

Got there early and hung around hoping for it to come in and settle ( huh).

Dave went out early and looked like he had a magic session. The whole bay was glassy.

I got out here and it had really kicked in. I bashed my elbow on the gear on the 1st gybe which really hurt. I was luffing the sail in the evil gusts,  I only did a few gybes as I was worried about copping a gust mid gybe.

 I expected to get lifted on the bearaways..I changed to the lower clewhole but I decided I wasn't enjoying it , it wasn't worth the risk and I called it.

 Pity as the water conditions were unreal..

 Oh well I lived to sail another day. Looking forward to easier S conditions next week.

Nice day on the water with plenty of friends. 7 was a bit big in the gusts but toughed it out for a nice distance.

Slowly woring out how to go to windward, made it to the top of the bay for the first time.

Hopefully more tomorrow.
