The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s be straight: there’s nothing doing for a while in this part of the world. The whole 16-day run is a flat spell, so don’t get your hopes up for any real waves. We’re looking at a long, quiet stretch from now through the end of the month.
Looking at Crash Boat, it’s a beach and reef setup that’s usually pretty sheltered from the swell, and that’s the problem. For the whole outlook, we’ve got near-zero wave energy, with combined swell energy values reading between 1 and 11 (weak). The swell heights stay tiny, from 0.3 ft right up to maybe 1.0 ft at best, with short periods of 4 to 10 seconds. That’s not surf, that’s a lake. The water temperature anomaly is not mentioned here, so we’ll just say it’s about what you’d expect for this time of year. Nothing unusual.
The winds though – hats off to the consistency. Most of the time we’ve got a clean, offshore breeze from the ENE, sometimes fresh and strong, which would make for glassy conditions if there was any swell to ride. There’s a nice glassy morning on Thursday, August 20th, but again, the swell is a pathetic 0.7 ft. It’s just not happening.
This spot is described as inconsistent, and this run proves it. With surf this flat and the break being sheltered, it’s honestly looking more interesting for a quiet paddle on a SUP than a surf session. There are no standout days, no hidden gems. It’s a blank run, and for this area, that’s just how it goes sometimes.
In summary: don’t bother paddling out for waves until you see a real change in the forecast. Keep an eye on it, because forecasts can always change, but right now, it’s a no-go.
Rusty.

Information about the Crash Boat Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Crash Boat provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Crash Boat can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Crash Boat surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Crash Boat) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Crash Boat may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
