chariot 243 Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 The weather looks better than we had in Auckland over labour weekend. Brilliant photos. Might have to head there next labour weekend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Addem 95 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 We all had a great weekend. Lots of competitive Sailing, partying, fishing. Top speed logged on Pork Chop 16.9 knots two days running. Highlight of the year for us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
El Toro 97 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Addem, Id suggest looking to recalc the speedo and would also suggest you probably went a bit faster than that. One of my crew during a coastal several years ago hit over 17 knots and then decided it was logging to fast, so reduced the calibration off Sail Rock, which meant even though we went faster a bit later on, nobody broke his record...and we never got around to recalibrating. That does sound like good times! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Addem 95 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 I didnt say we went that speed but did log it. In any case , it was damn fast and exhilarating with a big X. Mind you we stuffed up the gybe (again) and ended up chasing boats to windward. Legends is always an excellent weekend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ptown 14 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Can anyone advise if there is a water supply at the mercs? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deep Purple 511 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Not public unless you contact the farm. Plenty of fresh water creeks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ex Elly 197 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 There used to be a tap on the jetty in the cove - half way up on the eastern side. But last time I used it was around 10 years ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Addem 95 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 I can’t recall if the tap is still there. I go there every year but We never need a refill over the weekend. I’ve used the farm workshop a few times though. They are very accommodating if one is respectful of the fact it is privately owned. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
