Hello Friends,

I was up in plenty of time to write my report for you, but the computer gods decided we need a poke apparently. Anyway, we’re back now, so I can now tell you that it’s very small and weak. Swell’s out of the NE at about a metre with an average period of just 7 seconds. The longer period component that was still hanging around yesterday morning has now vanished, so I wouldn’t be expecting any bomb sets.

Outlook is for the wind to build up from the NE as the day goes along and to eventually get up toward the 30kt mark. If that happens then we just might see some okay windwaves near dusk at those semi-exposed NE favourable locations like Curly and Northy.

Have yourself a top old Friday!
