Rough one. Was too South but banked on a shift to the West. Fairly windy all day. Picked up after a while to a very steady looking 20 knots SW all the way up the inlet and the sun came out with it. Looked so good I went for a rip out into the inlet off the end of Wain Rd. Turned around and I've never seen it die so fast. Went from 20 to 0 in about 30 seconds. Too hard to paddle abeam the waves in the left over chop but after 30 minutes or so got to shore. About 500m beach walk to Warrior Pt., 500m trail, and 2km walk to van.
Oh well. Can't believe when I saw WindDoc paddle all the way across Ross Bay once a couple years ago. Definitely made it look easy! Will play it safer next time..
