NE's for the weekend
justal - 6-4-2010 at 16:28

It's a long way off yet, but there could be some NE's for the weekend... Will Ivor come out to play? Will I get to finally use my Speed Kit? Only time will tell but if anyone fancies doing a wind dance, sacrificing a board or something that would be good as I can't wait to use the new toys!

Im keen. Got to watch myback kiting this year, so speed sailing on flat water could be the best option

I have seen a few old boards behind Al's shed he could sacrifice. Thanks for that Al, we are all relying on you to bring Ivor out of hiding.

You've got a point there... A sacrificial burning of the Sputnik could be needed soon!

I will bring the petrol then!

It's not looking that promising for the weekend, although there is still a possibility for Sunday... Next week is looking awesome at the moment though.. Tuesday onwards has a decent NE all week, just building all week long.

With help from Ivor it should be ballistic towards the end of the week.

I may have to re-arrange work to some extent!

mmmm hopefully Sunday will produce something.

Hey, what happened to the forecast? Yesterday they had the whole of next week with decent NE's. I cancelled work for the week and was ready to make the most of it and now there's barely anything and what there is is more Northerly than before. Not fair.

There's actually some wind at the mo... 16-18 knots in the estuary. Not quite enough but that does make it a little more promising for tomorrow morning.

Looks like an early start for me tomorrow then. Hopefully Ivor will show up tomorow morning.

Impi - 11-4-2010 at 05:08

Not even a sparrow fart of wind here. Does not look like a worthwhile trip. Damn!

justal - 11-4-2010 at 05:59

Not a lot here at the mo but it is building... On;y about 10 knots at the moment.

I was going to head over but think i'll leave it now - Wednesday looks about the best - cheers for the headsup Al

justal - 11-4-2010 at 08:35

20 knots now.... Might pop down and check it properly in a minute.

Al.

bucski - 11-4-2010 at 20:55

How long did it last Al? Did you get out?

justal - 12-4-2010 at 06:25

It was there pretty much all day but a little gusty and not windy enough for me at about 15-18 knots. Nice and warm in the sunshine though so tempting but I went for a Mountain Bike ride instead.

Hoping Ivor will do better during the week.
