Went for a sail in town for a change... Ponsonby cruising club open day turned out a stunner!

had the combined weiti gh winter race.nice sunny 5-10knots. good close racing with it being abit too close at times. with a little bit of carnage! to put it lightly we were in the wrong and demolished the prod.. Wild thing was honking along and chasing a 45fter all the way to the finish. with whats news not far behind. But im sure we will get a write up form WT anyway.. even got some work done on the little 3.7 yesterday!

Went out for a sail. Squid if you could make it work that would be great

Repaired a rather large soft spot in philstars hobie 16. All fixed now! Did some small jobs on the 780 and measured sails for our phrf for the simrad. now today I re-spliced the prod lines as one came out racing on sunday. Now their whipped! What else is there to do Philstar!

fitted some jib tracks to the r780 ready for the winter series. Broke a rivet gun riveting a mainsheet track to philstars hobie 16 and did some dodgy electrics . allgood fun.

What a noodle of a rig!

No problems mate

had the pole race at Manly.

same here... I can see it being expensive, but also in-expensive for the sort of boat that you would be getting

fair enough, everyone is entitled to their own opinion

it looks like a quick design downwind... but i think you might need abit extra weight to sail it in a breeze.... As for a over rated expesive dog? maybe expensive, but i dont think its over rated. Id for sure want to test sail one

Shoulda come and said hello! but not run the slow red boat down in the process... Now.. was you the boat that couldnt get the black gennaker up properly or the one with the white one blasting along at sh%#ing your pants speed?

finally got them this evening Richard! there will be some photos from the NS champs coming later..

Had our north shore champs at Takapuna on Saturday and Sunday. Wasn't my best result but had alot of fun with a good turn out of 9 boats on both days. On the Saturday we had a light Northerly sea breeze of around 10kts with Derek Scott taking out all four races. Sunday came with more wind of up to 15kts with less sun and a bigger NE swell. this provided much more fun with full wire reaches for the light buggers. top three places after two days of racing 1st- Derek Scott 2nd- Phil Ash 3rd- Mike Jones Photos to come. Also met Richard B down there aswell!

Second that...!
