It's early days but it looks like wind on Saturday for the biggest day in Australian windsurfing!
We have five more days to hone our ocean racing skills.
)
Graphs - Western Australia - North West.
Granted, Lancelin isn't all that North West, but it's North of Perth!
There are green arrows on the Perth forecast for Saturday as well as the Lano forecast so fingers crossed we'll all be clinging on to a 6 - something, or maybe a 5 - something!
Great I've packed a 5.5 . Can't get my mac to open the entry form, can you enter on the day? What time does it start? How longs the course?
Get the entry via the events list on the rhs of the windsurfing home page. The weather for saturday is already locked in, unless Huey can bend the laws of physics?
You is playing with fire there lad! That is exactly what Huey does... [}:)] I think he is closely related to Murphy........ Good luck in the race Ian and all the other Seabreezers!
As the old saying goes: "How do you make old Huey laugh?" = "Tell him about your plans!!!!"
You can enter on the day - no problem, but the earlier you enter, the better your start line position.
How do the shuttle buses work? Do you rig up and drive to the finish, and catch a shuttle back? Or is there a shuttle back once the event is done?
Still looking at other long range forecasting tools and it's not looking like 5-6m weather 14knots ain't that strong unless you weigh in at 40kg
It's best to park at Ledge with all you're gear, as it can be quite a wait. You can then get a lift back after the race.
Not sure about the shuttle bus but there are plenty of helpful people around that'll look after us. 
CU there
Nebs my missus is coming as my caddie so we can give you a lift back to ledge once you have finished
Nebs, just drive to the start which is Ledge Point, and do the race. Somebody will give you a lift back. My wife will be bringing my car back to Lano, but I will probably have to go back to Ledge to pick up extra rigs I may have thrown together in case of changing conditions just before the start.
Elmo, my sources are predicting 18-20 knots for Saturday. It definitely looks like SSW, and the Perth forecast of fine and 29 degrees is making all the right noises.
