John B 108 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Its not often you get a pic of your own boat sailing. Us over xmas coming around Cape Bret after a long wet beat from Whangaruru. Thanks TC for the pic. IMG_5996.jpg I saw you coming in to Motuihie on the weekend, looked good, nice sails. I'll take a snap for you if I see you sailing again. What a bunfight that place was , we only went there for the club picnic , haven't anchored with that many boats for a long time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ScottiE 174 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 ha ha - we stayed the night before along with about 20 others and then sat on the beach watching the carnage unfold. The night before was most pleasant! How 'bout that fizz nastie playing ping pong through the classics! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John B 108 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Oh yes! That was funny/ weird. Why didn't they just fire up and re anchor . After the great barrier storm dragging boats debacle/saga in january, I just about needed counselling for the flashbacks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vorpal Blade 89 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 It was the busiest Ive seen Motuihie for a long time. Sadly the fizz nasties outnumbered the yachts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
