The Search

By mid morning on Friday I would expect a call from Paul.....'knocking off at lunchtime, up for a surf? '...yep...and so after picking up Brenden, we headed south searching for a wave!







Back beach didn't look inviting, so we headed around the headland to Manyana and Cunjurong Point for a look see


 Hamburgers had a little wave protected out of the wind

Saturday Morning Search
Kneelo Cove

After looking at Back Beach first, we headed around to our 'kneelo cove' and found it small but offshore and best of all......uncrowded.





as soon as we got out 2 guys came running across the shelf to jump in

I was here first.....

The local creek at Swan Lake has opened again to the ocean after being closed for a few years




and with this it has shifted tonnes of sand, leaving the natural shelf rock exposed for the firt time many years



On a closer look you can see where people have scribed their names and date into section s of the exposed rock









Various dates and names have been scribed over the years, but none as old as these



Waka 1620.....piss off Jimmy Cook, my family was here first!

  1. Looks like a great Saturday surf, wish I was there! Exactly how well did the "The Cuttlefish" handle? It certainly has a very interesting style.

  2. Hey David
    Still playing with bottom shape, was talking to Wizz this morning and he suggested cutting off the large rear keel to give it more release....heaps of speed up on the plane!
