Chris, Gerard, Oz and I set out from Werribee South to see if we could crack the Little River entrance. We arrived round three hours past high tide, and ran aground in soft goo well before. We anchored for a bumpy lunch. When it came time to claw off the lee shore my centreboard was stuck. A bit exciting there till finally I freed it. We had a great broad reach back along the coast. I shook out the reefs in my sails, and of course the wind kicked up with 20 knot gusts. I recorded a Max 8.1 knots. It was a grand sail. But I have unfinished business with that River. I might try a launch from Kirk Point with the Skerry.
