Wahoo the wind came back!

Loving the summer in Wellington........... the best one in 40 years so the weather people say.........and with that the Capital is facing water shortages with only 20 days of water left.

A big day today............ saw a great Led Zeppelin tribute band at Midland Park on Wellingtons Lambton Quay, had a lunch "progress meeting" with Sharlene regarding some of the Welly Paddlers events we are putting together................and excelente, gracias we have a Spanish Speaking, Argentinian Pope!

On the water enjoying a great spin around the Harbour on the Think Evo II in a 30 to 40 kmh Northerly sliding through the waves, especially enjoying the washing machine sloppy chop banging off the sea wall on Oriental Parade. It would have been a great session on the stand up paddle board today if I had enough time to take that out as well.............maybe tomorrow.

In the process of selling a surf ski and sup boards and paddles at the moment and preparing to order a couple of Surf skis for next Season..............just have to meet the Fergs Kayaks pre order deadline of mid April. The skis I order won't be part of the regular stock, with so many brands, models and constructions to choose from there are always limited numbers of skis coming into this country.

If you are after a carbon ski, a kevlar or even a glass surf ski from Think Kayaks it will pay to pre order.......... Auckland gets first dibs and the rest of us may have to put up with whats left or wait another 12 months for the next container..........pre ordering is the way to go!

The Annabel Anderson visit to Wellington.............well that is still a work in progress?..............
