Not very wise to look for the best forecast & then rely on that, good way to get into trouble. Better off going with the worst forecast & if things turn out better, great. Besides, Seabreeze rarely gets the wind forecast right, Willyweather on the other hand is usually spot on.
Sea breeze i find quiet in accurate, but yes as my preference i always use willy weather and hasn't let me down. You can also check other things on willy weather that you cant with sea breeze. shows most spots around perth i.e Garden Island, Rottnest. I dont plan a trip out until the day before, just incase the weather changes
It's a good idea before you load the boat to check the wind at rotto sometimes you go outside your door and it's calm and rotto will be 20knots +This weekend is looking a little doggy to me for out wide .In shore will be alright.
I think its really to do with the location. I think seabreeze is a pretty general forecast. With willyweather I always check the wind at garden island and then at rottnest. I also check the BOM they don't have exact times but they give a good enough description of how high the seas will be as well.
The forecast for garden and rotto is strongish winds all week at the moment
heading to denham next week for a week of relaxation, a bit of fishing out the tinny and a shit load of drinking and dribbling.......look out denham where coming!!!
Times like these I sit here weeping in silence, constantly refreshing the willyweather page hoping they've made a mistake and it goes back to the previous forecast.

I would love to get out
I would love to get out Sunday, but I,m not seeing anything too good weatherwise. At least not in the Perth area !. Which forecast are you using ?

I use willys weather,
I use willys weather, seabreeze, sro surf and weatherbom. If all four align I am more confident.
Thanks for the new one randall.
I always check each day leading up to the main event and of course just before leaving.

hm i dont get it, i allways
hm i dont get it, i allways use seabreeze, just had a look at this willyweather and it thinks basically all week in perth it will be under 10 knots?
where seabreeze sais its going to have wind spikes almost everyday up to 20-25knots exept sundi + mundi
still seabreeze makes sunday look average and willyweather makes it look awesome ...anyone?

Very early for us too, staying in the shallows ... BOM is saying shit, but Seabreeze and Willy are reading ok for early
