Hello Friends,
ESE 11-16 kts. 35 to 50mm of rain coming our way. 2.3 metres of 8-second ESE swell. The pictures tell the story. It’s a day only for the desperate and fit.
And for the outlook, may I point you to the latest words of surf wisdom from the mighty Goat.
Also, a bit of a head’s up that I’m getting close to giving RealSurf a new look. If all goes well, it should be in place by next week.
Have a great Friday one and all!
