Anyone out on the water this weekend ? Desperate to get out after a windless week off.......... forecast still looks very marginal though.

If there's enough win I'll be on the water.... Not looking good though at the moment so it looks as though I might be working instead!

Dunk and i should be up for a play sat afternoon and sun...but the wind might be better on the gower...we'll have to see.

ok Nige where were you this week?
read my diaries Tim and myself got about 12 hours on the water in the three daysABSOLUTE FANTASTIC TIME.
will be somewhere this weekend ,looks like should have stayed at brancaster for the weekend as well.

Encee - 1-4-2005 at 09:46

I was so undecided....... looked at the forcast for later this week and it appeared to be the better option.
Still live and learn eh ?

Will in future heed the advice of those that know better.

Good to see you had a good one.

Self & Paul B are going to try Oxwich - Wind appears to be in the right direction but wether there will be enough of it we'll find out tomorow............

I'm hoping for a sneaky katabatic session in the estuary here first thing in the morning... But it isn't a certainty.

It's looking good for a nice Katabatic wind in the estuary this morning at the moment.... First light should be around 6.15am.... I'll see you on da beach dudes!

Nah... Sleeping's for wimps!!!

Although it was 5.23am not 4.23! There was a nice bit of wind in the estuary as well.. Got to try my new 5.7m sail out, and very nice it is too.
