Dambo 44 Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 I can't decide between the Spencer or the trailer sailor... Schzando or Uenuku... (uenuku is easy) There is an easy dress up alternative.... Join us on... WILD! Or Wild Oats but I'm not sure about being covered in... porridge?!?? waikiore, that's just gross I thought part of the goal was to have as many boats as possible out there with people who're new/being introduced. Besides, looks like I'll have the kids this time so won't be drinking like last year... or the 727 Nationals Link to post Share on other sites

Island Time 1,235 Posted December 9, 2014 Author Share Posted December 9, 2014 AN update; Entries have been pretty slow still, and the ones that have sent the entry forms and PAID the $20 fee even slower. PLEASE NOTE - you are not entered unless the fee is paid!! I also want to re-iterate - this is NOT a formal race. The event is run under the COLREGS, NOT the RRS. Protests will be considered after we have finished the rum that is the protest fee, and then the protest will be discarded!!! THIS IS NOT A FORMAL RACE! DO NOT GET INVOLVED IN ANY "INCIDENTS". There is no club overseeing this event, and no protest committee. It is a "RACE" by name only, as that is what it was traditionally called. Added to the prize list will be two flash BBQ type systems - Cobb Kitchen in a BOX! See here Worth about $400 each. Great prizes!! PLEASE GET YOUR ENTRIES IN - so we have at least a rough Idea of numbers - for catering etc. Thanks, Matt Link to post Share on other sites

Dambo 44 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Dambo, did you do the entry form on the front page? Doh! At work and got distracted by less important things Link to post Share on other sites
madyottie 82 Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Being a non-Friday has ruled out three Weymouth boats, would have been two Hartleys and our Cherry. Mind you, would be pretty difficult for us to top last years second place I think! Link to post Share on other sites
Island Time 1,235 Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 No reason you can't come for the party! As I said earlier, we had complaints from several clubs when the event was scheduled for the Friday. Can't keep everyone happy. However, I am considering setting the date for next year as the Friday before Christmas, and getting in first! 19 entries so far this year, and starting to come in. If you are coming, please get your entries in! The caterers want an idea of numbers.... Link to post Share on other sites
