TimW 1 Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Should be good fun. I heard from Steve though that there currently only 4 entries. Forecast looks like it should be around 15 knots. As usual back to Swashies after the race which could well be the best part! Also anyone in the vicinity who doesn't mind lending me a hand to get on and off the marina?

Clipper 344 Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 I'm in! And entered. Even paid. Excited about being able to crank the stereo LOUD as I don't have any crew to yell at. Other than me of course. But I don't listen to him anyway. Link to post Share on other sites
Clive 13 Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Excited about being able to crank the stereo LOUD as I don't have any crew to yell at. Stereo! bugger ... knew there was something I forgot to add! If I have a mainsail I'll be out. Seems fitting as I was on my own the last time I had a sail on Tigre... I have no jibs apart from a borrowed yankee so I'll have to have a word in the handicappers ear. Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 We don't have a spot at Westhaven and hope to come home soon so if anyone has a mooring or marina idea for us at Westhaven that would be great. The boat is at Bayswater on G near the grave yard of retired fishing boats. But we hope to get out on Sunday arvo. If the 1986 Evinrude works again. Its had a hard life.

Guest Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Hmmm is that a Wolf Hunter? Link to post Share on other sites
Atom Ant 0 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Could be, although I don't see any pictures of a rifle on the sides? Perhaps FD & TW would like to grace the WBC short handed races this summer? If so there could be upwards of 5 rafts racing up there in the picturesque Hauraki Gulf. Link to post Share on other sites
Clive 13 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Getting a bit windy out there now ... 28knots at Bean Rock... 11.35 Anyway, took Tigre out before the wind warning to check the re-cut on the main... Just in time for the guys heading out for the race... it rained! Steve getting ready on Hyper Tim heading out I keep promising sun! Link to post Share on other sites
johnMi 2 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Was a great run today, definitely not the 30 knots forecast in my bit of water. It was a bit lumpy going down to Rakino, but beautiful flat water, if a bit gusty all the way to Browns, great on the nose sailing. Only took me just over 3 hrs Link to post Share on other sites
