Strange activity to report in Barbados. In 30+ degrees C, people seem to find a Hobie of interest. Imagine 3 whales being herded onto this thing and then add a helm who pushes through the 1ft surf with the instructions ââ,¬Å"now everyone just stay still until we get back to shoreââ,¬Â.
Hayley and I are more of the opinion that we should be filling a container with proper boats and heading back here in a few years. Every day it starts at a F2 and then builds to a F4-5, flat water that is as warm as a bath.

Not sure you should refer to those bikini clad ladies as "Whales"  ;D

For everyones benefit, I have blown this up to about 1000% and I can confirm the tops are on  :(

Worst "I'm sunning myself on the beach in glorious weather whilst you're stuck sat in a shitty office with rain beating against the window - post" ever!

Thanks Tim. Now we are back home 2 more photos for you.

1) Big G, I chose a shot with select casting. It took alot of the morning moving people on to achieve the shot (and persuade them to put thier tops back on). The average beach whale looked more like me.

2) Now we are home we were wondering if anyone fancied an impromptu blast? Sadly Born Slippy is at Chew and Evo's board is too long, but as of tomorrow morning we could probably launch from the sitting room.

Crikey!

You've built your own lake now! It looks a little bigegr than frampton.  I could send sarah over with the byte C2 which has a tiny dagger board. Approx 40cm below the hull.

No flooding around us yet. 

R can I buy some resin please?

As of this morning we have a Rugby club outside our house :-)
For now the lake has vanished - don't worry it'll be back soon.

i'm liking this idea of this free bed and breakfast venue with its own private lake. Can Roland dig it deep enough for Pauls and Clives longer daggerboards... thinkin though, Paul and Clive stranded could be the marks we sail round!!!

Paul and Clive stranded may be the only chance we get to beat them :D
