Ocean Stuff: Spring Swell @ Toms #2

First day of leave...and what a morning!.

As predicted by the swell forecast - 5 days in advance - a 3-4m swell and offshore winds. It was great to be out in the water - but was quite lumpy and I have to confess a tad dangerous.

Technology is taking the guesswork out picking the days and times.

Got caught on the inside more times than I want to admit and dragged along the reef a few times. But its what the game is all about.

Tommorrow will be slightly smaller - but the shape will be better...so I'm off to my favourite local break tommorrow with a few of the boys - "Dewars" at Yanchep - about one hour North of the City.

I'm trying to negotaite a leave pass to go down south next week with the lads.
