Cheers


Hey Simon,

it's not just the 30 knot winds crazy . South westerly direction, heavy rain and snow down to 500m cry , makes it sound like it would not be beach weather, even at sunny McCrae wink. After all, I only go to McCrae for the beach and the scenery whistle.


Hi Gary, Southwesterly = no shore break smile Heavy rain..get all that salt off the rig smile Snow to 500m...we're at seal level so we should be safe but if not, that's what beenies are for smile 30knots... raced in worse at McCrae crazy Sounds like a lovely weekend to me!.. If the wind lightens up a bit I'll be out for a sail....still enjoying the honemoon with the new boat!

No doubt the Gippsland lads will make her seem "less fast" in a couple of weeks time cry

Cheers
