The Lowdown
Alright, let me break it down for you. This is Rusty, and I gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for a proper paddle. The models are showing a whole lot of nothing for the foreseeable future, so don't go getting your hopes up.
We're looking at Crash Boat as the only option on the table, and honestly, it's a tough beat. This spot is a beach and reef setup, sheltered from the swell, and it's inconsistent. It's an advanced wave, but we're not getting the juice to make it work. For the first week, from Thursday the 10th of September right through to Wednesday the 23rd of September, the energy is just a trickle. The combined swell energy is sitting between 1 and 66 (weak), with waves barely cracking 1 ft, if that. Wind is mostly cross-off or offshore, which would normally be a win, but there's no swell to work with. It's a whole lot of clean, flat water.
There is a tiny glimmer, but it's a long way off. On the morning of Thursday the 24th of September, we finally see a little bump. The combined energy climbs to 41 (still weak), with a 2 ft swell from the north at a 9-second period. The wind is glassy – calm and clean. That's the best of the bunch, but it's still barely ridable. The following day, Friday the 25th of September, looks a touch better on paper, with the energy hitting 112 (moderate) and a 2 ft north swell at 11 seconds. The wind is light offshore, so it'll be clean. But even then, we're talking about tiny waves. For a spot that's inconsistent and needs a good swell from the west, this north-northwest direction isn't ideal, and the size is just too small to get excited about.
So, what's the verdict? If you're desperate for a glide, the 24th and 25th of September are the least terrible days, with tiny, clean waves. But for a proper surf, there's nothing on the cards. The whole 16-day window is a blank run. It's a bummer, but it happens here. Keep an eye on the forecasts, because things can change, but for now, I'd say save your energy.
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.
