Thanks Jim, I'm more of a photographer than vlogger, need to get the vids done as we are heading on another trip your way in a few weeks, maybe we can catch up, I'm not sailing though at the mo 👌

Yes each to their own, I have some other friends who over land on their bikes and that's great. Our trailers were only around 1.5 tonne and we went west to east which is the easiest direction. We didn't need any recoveries so all good 👌

It was mate, have you been to the Kimberley yet ?

@ No, I haven’t been up there yet. Really looking forward to it though. A few more years the kids will be old enough to kick out 😂. Then we’ll start traveling 🍻

​@lifeonthebay2974 you will love it mate

No mate way to cold there

Yeah maybe you are right, all the gorges in the Kimberley and Pilbara looks so ancient !

Yes mate I'm sure you are right, if the track wasn't chewed up by a road train we would have driven straight through 👌

Yes mate I hear you, I think it would work in a ripping northerly depending on the banks at the time and where the boats are moored, definitely worth a consideration 👌

Thanks mate, my first time there, absolutely beautiful! I wasn't planning on doing a vid but just got a new drone and gave it a go and I thought the footage was OK 👌

Thank you !

Around 10 to 15 knts just flat due to heavy weed, so magic.

Thanks!

People kite surf there rarely as I am told tricky as the kite ropes can get caught in the weed

@@uhaggar makes sense now, thank you! Seaweed on kite lines can be a nightmare. But it wouldn’t turn me out of trying this marvelous spot, if I had the possibility, with my beloved tiki

No AI mate that's how it was, if you don't believe it come visit 🤗

@@uhaggar just kidding ! So Incredible 🤩 🤙

@garyguett haha yep Gary amazing !

Definitely wind, just no chop due to thick weed lol

@@uhaggar - o tai kaip nėra bangų, jeigu yra vėjas ?

​@@remigijusjozenas398thick weed !

Thanks David appreciated 👌

Yeah Andrew that's what happened to us, we watched people crossing and thought we could get through, you live and you learn that's for sure 👌

@@uhaggar yeah it wouldn't be much of a trip if it all went perfectly eh?!

​@andrewford80 yeah that's true, no harm done, we did also take our van into Purnululu and smashed our pull out step, but once again no big deal and it didn't cost a lot to get fixed when we got home. Can't wait to do more of these trips 👌

There had been a lot of rain so we saw no saltys, I flew the drone up and down the river and saw none but they could have been there. I think if we had stuck to the right we may have hot through but I was worried about falling off the track

Hi we actually travelled the Gibb last year, I've just been really slack at processing my video, I'm more of a photographer lol. Anyway check the conditions I'm sure that Kununurra Info centre or El Questro can let you know, I don't think it is usually too bad depending on recent rain fall 👌

It's in South Australia a long way from New York lol

Certainty is a stunning part of Aus, I did this trip last year I'm just not very quick with my videos sometimes 😝

Rita yes I agree, the natural springs far nicer but watch out for those snappy things what a surprise !

Thanks bud appreciated 👌

yes David shallow water and thick weed

Probably 20 to 30 knts wind and most speeds high 30 knts and a few 40 knts . Not the best conditions compared to usual

Near Adelaide in South Australia

Can help to go upwind

Hey Barney I am not a fin expert but I believe you need around a 45 degrees rake. The 2 most common fins are the Atomic Nuclear weed and the Tectonics Speed Demon these are both delta fins. The other fins used are super weeds which are made by Tribal and Atomic. There will be others but they are the ones I am familiar with. Hope this helps mate

Thanks!

Yeah it's pretty cool 👌

Sail sizes between 5.5 and 7 metre on that day 👌

@@uhaggar thanks Glenn.

Thanks it is !

Welcome 👌

Definitely worth a look 👌

Thanks mate, the wind is not as good as previous years and the water not as flat but its is still great sailing 👌

Hey Rob, thanks, yep it was a good day, I did close to 35 knts and there was at least one 40 knt speed for one of the sailors, lots in the high 30's. The wind isn't as strong this year, probably due to all the cyclones up north.

Thanks kindly it was a great day 👌

Thanks Jayden, sailors like you make it 👌

Yep you certainly should well worth it 👌

thanks Antony

no not much !

thanks Neil, maybe we can catch up and take some pics one day mate

@@uhaggar Absolutely. Let me know when you’re in Hervey Bay next and we will arrange a catch up. 🍻 I don’t leave Hervey Bay much……it’s too nice 😂

It surely is Phil pretty epic 👌

Holding the uphaul can help go upwind better, give it a go !

@@uhaggar Thanks for the reply. Last time I windsurfed was 25 years ago. We moved to San Diego and fhere is no wind here. I’m no shape to do this again tho this was my hobby for more then a decade in the 80’s and 90’s. I didn’t run a uphaul soon after I learned to waterstart since uphauling where I surfed was near impossible with the board sinking and the chop.

thanks !

yes I have spoken to many locals and they have told me that, also been windsurfing races here in the big lake and lots of fishing many years ago.

You’re not thinking of Lake George near Canberra are you?

Are you thinking of Lake George near Canberra? This is Lake George in South Australia.

that sounds pretty special as well !

yes thats true Nigel, as soon as you hit the mirror its like you turn the super charger on
