wind in Abaco
Have been up to Abaco on work several times and the wind seems to be much more consistant and stronger. Great bays and waves on the outter islands. Have not had a chance to take gear up, but may do next weekend.

Shredding inside White Cay in the Berrys. GREAT spot, butter on the inside, waves on the outside and reef in between! Hey AJ what do you know about winds in the Central Bahamas and thereabouts? It seems like you folks may have more going on than systems sliding off the continent, tropical systems and may have some outer tradewind influence. From: http://mapserver.maptech.com There is a tourist report about riding off of Treasure Cay in winter this year at: http://bayareakiteboarding.com/viewtopic.php?t=1294 Barometer Bob has quite a few private wind meter sites throughout the Abacos on his site at: http://barometerbob.com/

lots of rumours and theories about higher wind speeds and consistancy in central and southern Bahamas but not much in the way of weather stations or fellow kiteboarders to expand the info.
There has been an offical expedition to Andros where we found tons of potential but were out of wind on that weekend. Locals were talking about months of 15 to 25 NE'ers in the autumn and spring, "but it usually drops off on Sundayafternoon" ! As a rule of thumb, I'm thinking Northern Bahamas in NE's and Southern Bahamas in SE's. MM PS - where's my Hellfish

ok - based on 'bayareakite's reco I went to treaure cay point / spit this morning and it was going OFF! 18 to 25 SE. A gap between the peninsula point and a little cay (300m.) cross shore with shoales and sand bars either side to keep the water flat. Got some good pics so will post them when I get back to Nassau. Only have 12 nemi over here so I had to pack it in when it started gusting over 25 - but awesome spot / session.
Know you guys are tearing it up at Blue Hill :-) I am your spagetti bitch - Mocean
