Changed 10 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 This is the solo division of the Route 66. Great to see Sunfast Racing and Berenice having a go this year. Must have seen the bags for the solo guys! Hopefully we'll see the Gale Force and a few more of the bigger boats giving it a go solo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Changed 10 Posted March 1, 2016 Author Share Posted March 1, 2016 A great turn out by the single handers with a fleet of twenty eight. Also good to see a few of our bigger cousins coming out to play. Even the breeze looks to be filling in. Roll on Friday. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

B00B00 310 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 No Richard I don't think I will be there Saturday, got heaps on. Just got home at 2am this morning from 2 weeks in Australia (Hobart) with my whole family for my brothers wedding. Traveling with 3 young kids is challenging. Now I have the wife and all 3 kids with the same nasty tummy bug I have battled for the last 3 days. Still cleaning up spew from all over the house.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
