I have to admit, I had some lofty expectations for conditions this morning. Yesterday afternoon the swell was maxing; easily 8ft sets out at the bombie.  So, with a forecast for just a little easing in swell, a slight kink around to the South-South-East and light winds on the cards the picture I’d painted in my mind for this morning was kind of up in the epic range.

Unfortunately its fallen a little short.  The swell’s still a touch raw and the offshore hasn’t materialised to iron out the bumps; what we’re left with isn’t too bad but it’s a long stretch to epic.

It’s 10:30 and I’m still waiting for the offshore… I guess it’s not coming right?. C’est la vie.
