Just wondered if anyone was going up to Rhosneigr this thursday as the wind looks pretty good. Windguru is saying 20knts SW most of the day.

Sorry... just a little too far for me to travel when I should have similarly good conditions on my doorstep here in Borth.... I should make a trip up North sometime soon though if I can get a few others to join me.

Hi Al Im afraid i have never sailed at Borth before, although I have sailed Dovey estuary. Will you be sailing there tomorrow? What is it like for a novice wave sailor?

Yep. I'll be there tomorrow. It can be a little hectic for a novice, but you can always take cover in the estuary if you like.

However, if you can sail on the sea at Rhosneigr I would imagine you would be OK at Borth. The beach itself is pretty safe... Gently shelving, no rocks etc. The waves can get fairly big, but there is never a nasty shorebreak. It is an ideal place to learn to sail in the waves. As long as you are on a smallish board and are comfortable with water-starting then it will be perfect.
