Awesome easterly sail out of Peli.

Hit the water around 8.30 and it was solid and building.  Pretty steady around 18-23K, with the odd puff probably close to 25K.

Well lit up on the Futura 111 + 40 Talon + 7.5 Koncept.  Picked the right combo today, felt very comfortable out there and enjoyed racking up the kays. 

Still plenty of stink boats, but not as bad as yesterday.  Breeze was stronger today, so the stink boat chop was easier to deal with...blast right over the top of it.

Tried for a quick hour, but fell into some holes, so didn't crack a 20k+ hour today.

Came in around 11.15, the breeze was still crankin, but had to go.

Sweet sesh, my best easterly sail ever.Cool

Shoulda said I would have come out and done some distance with ya. Instead spent the day shifting boxes cutting back feral bushes and clearing about 40 kg of leaves and twigs from the roof at the new house. Could have done with the excuse.

Sorry Mark it was kinda spur of the moment Embarassed....wake up, mmmm it's windy, car's still packed from yesterday, no commitments this morning, righto let's go.  Didn't set out on a distance mish, but the conditions were so good I just kept going.

I also recalled you had some shifting stuff planned?
