Hello Friends, Lightly offshore to start with today and there’s a weakish looking little SE windswell showing on the MHL buoy off Sydney. The winds are expected to swing more to the east and southeast though. It looks as if the best plan is to get in early and try to grab a few scraps […]
Extra second of period…
Hello Friends, Well, how ’bout them apples? The hoped for extra second of swell energy has made it to Sydney along with a slight tweak to the SE in the primary direction, all of which adds up to a re-calibration from marginal to average. Bet the school kids will be stoked…

The light offshores didn’t go astray either. Here are a couple snaps I […]
