waikiore 410 Posted February 23, 2018 Author Share Posted February 23, 2018 Hopefully she does the qualifying sail while this weather holds and no one mention br**ns island Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Island Time 1,249 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Looks like she's not in the solo Tasman, entry declined. That's pretty harsh after what she's done to get ready. I'm sure we'll hear the full story in due course. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deep Purple 512 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Gosh she/they have done a beautiful job on her. I went with Ashley the first day she looked at it. What a transformation Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RushMan 31 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 'The Solo Challenge' page/place/whatever on Saddobook I believe has lots. Only one of the launch... Perhaps some rum was consumed which has delayed the posting of more photos Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RushMan 31 Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I thought it was a yacht You're probably right about the rum caused delay. If you launch a yacht, do you ever yacht a launch? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Black Panther 1,604 Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Any info on why no TT? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RushMan 31 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 It must of been a HUGE launch party, there is still only the one photo on FB. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Clipper 346 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I saw Ashley, I think I went on the boat? I do recall an orange glow outside the squadron? I do recall rum, but perhaps wish I didnt. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fish 0 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Really good to see all those marine industry supporters logos on the side. I've taken note of those. And a sexy looking anchor on the front, looks like a Sarca Excel #4, I can only think of one outfit that supplies those KMM, good work! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ex Elly 197 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Wow 2 different antifoul colours! I guess they ran out of blue so had to finish off with red? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deep Purple 512 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 The cabinetmakers went to town Absolutely, the inside rivals any super yacht standard Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fish 0 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Wow 2 different antifoul colours! I guess they ran out of blue so had to finish off with red? Apparently the Mini 650 class has a rule that keels and rudders needed to be in bright colours to assist with SAR. I thought the red antifoul on the keel and rudder was just channelling that ultra hard core solo ocean crossing attitude Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Myjane 40 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Very dark colours to be seen under water on the keel rudder Quote Link to post Share on other sites
