2 hours ago 5 - 12kts patches 12-15kts plus SSW level 0.33 - 35m Buff Pt Budgewoi Lake, NSW, AU
5.5m Mach2 - Rs2 ( 90ltres) - 22cma atomic
Rigged for the forecast rather than what we had. Too small a sail and too big a fin.
Plodded up towards the pole to get a bit more depth. Couldn't gybes on the E side , I'd end up balanced on the fin.
A few fun gybes on the deeper side . I didn't bear away a lot as I was careful of the depth.
Some great flat areas. I risked gybing in the weed today and survived.
I'm happy with the alpha as the 2 sec was 21kts at that time.
Had a fun trip in, although I wasn't keen on the noise of the fin scraping along the bottom at one stage. 
Another 5kts with consistency and 5cms depth and it would have been epic!
Mike , Mick , Mitch and I .
Greg K , Matt , Greg F, JD and Vally went out as I derigged and it looked like it had died.
