Whats everyone up to this weekend then??

I'll be in Borth as usual, (but would like to go somewhere else for a weekend soon).

The forecasts are saying SW Force 4-5, so is anyone else coming to Borth?... I at least need someone to go to the pub with in the evening!!

If I'm lucky I have saturday free to sail, but Borth is a bit far for a day!

I have heard that the weather is going to be better (for sailing at least) by the weekend....I hope it is as it is too long sinse I have been on the water and work is getting me down

I hope there's some good wind forcast too its getting a bit cramped in the car having to put the bike inthere as well Got given a nice rack to put the bike on the roof think my bike need to go on a diet though cos the frames too fat for it to fit !

Well, I'm working on trying to get out for the day on Sunday but I'm not sure of the location.

Its early days yet and I'll probably decide last minute as usual but Borth is quite high on the list of possible spots.

AndyW... Looks as though there could be some wind.

They are only forecasting 12 -14 knots for Saturday, but Sunday looks better with the possibility of Force 5 SW in the afternoon.

Let me know if you are coming to Borth and I'll look out for you. Will you sail on the seafront. or in the estuary?? High tide (4.1m) is around 3.30pm on Sunday.

I'm not sure if anyone else will be around.

Bad news for my weekend I'm afraid, looks like no sailing at all for me, my pass out has been well and truly cancelled! I'm looking after the kids all weekend.

Oh well, I'll try again next weekend...

Thanks for the offer Al...

Hi folkes,

I'll be in Telford this weekend. But so far my forecast says only little wind. It might not be worth driving to Borth even though I'd like to meet up with you guys there.
I'll keep checking the forecast and will decide last minute.

Joe

Well, looks as though my weather forecast was spot on again for the weekend. There wasn't much on Saturday but the surf was OK, and then it filled in to a perfect Force 5, with warm green seas and sunny skies and an absolutely PERFECT session crusing up and down the coast, well powered up the whole time without a gust or lull in the wind.... AND, hardly anyone around because you all listened to the real weather forecasters!!!
