waikiore 451 Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Poor old Waitangi, bouncing on the Orakei sewer for almost an hour, which suggests that the normal skipper was not aboard -and no one tried to scandalise the main to help get her off? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ex Elly 225 Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Is the Sewer Beacon still there? If not, will the harbourmaster install a new one? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
waikiore 451 Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Been missing for a long time, but the large concrete sewer is still there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
raz88 97 Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 The stick on the end of the pipe? Slightly east of the wharf? I could swear it was there when I went past a week or two back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

waikiore 451 Posted May 29, 2023 Share Posted May 29, 2023 Anyone else witness the starting lesson handed out by Clockwork on saturday? Brilliant starboard approach flip onto port and cross on the gun clearly ahead. We clapped Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cameron 93 Posted May 29, 2023 Share Posted May 29, 2023 Ellephunk did a similar move... nicely executed Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Had a few smiles on board as we cleared out... pity no more M40 to play with though I saw a red flag up between 2 other boats after we crossed the line, nothing to do with us, not sure if it getting progressed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
waikiore 451 Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 Thought there may have been issues with the new combined starting sequence-changed three times last week, but all seemed to go off smoothly, except a yellow boat got in the way of a new skipper, very ungentlemanly, forcing her to be on the wrong side of the line which may have rattled their😉 crew as they later had to stop for a rest on McKenzie Bouy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
