Vorpal Blade 89 Posted January 30, 2012 Author Share Posted January 30, 2012 A massive weekend was had by all, lots of fun and a few new faces. We had more multis than have turned out for this kind of event for some time, joining in along the way were... Crowded house Timberwolf Pulse Vorpal Blade 2 to Tango Impreza Pzazz Superbird to Cruz Hyper Bad Kitty This way Up Voom in no particular order of course. Friday's night Not-race to Mahurangi was dominated by the weather more than anything, and this saw a few of us hiding in Mita bay a little earlier than planned then heading for Kawau on Saturday afternoon instead of Sunday. On the way up we had a go at catching the biggest fish with a shiny new Rapala lure but instead caught a Timberwolf as they did a high speed pass just a bit close and managed to smoke about 100 metres of line and said new Rapala into the distance ahead of us. The Results for the Crew.org sponsored section of the weekend....thanks Squid and Mt Gay The rum went to Finishing closest to 7pm - Pzazz Best supporting cast - Crowded House Randomly drawn from all the boats there - Impreza Needless to say there were 3 empty rum bottles in the clean up.

Guest Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 what an awesome weekend...... especially the mt gay rum bit..... thanks crew.org Link to post Share on other sites
1paulg 17 Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Yes ...great to catch up ...good effort on the kiddies events at Mahurangi ... Nice to have good wind for the trip down...even managed to set the gennaker on the way back as the sea breeze set in and had a nice ride from Whangaparoa ...shame I used a light line on the tack which then exploded just off Cheltenham as the breeze freshened and tightened a bit ...right in front of a camera I fear !!

Tim C 23 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Yes thank you all for a great weekend. I think I can thank you all, cause I'm pretty sure everyone came aboard Pulse at some stage!! I didn't think that many people (around 26) could be fed on one 10m cat! Was a great meal and evening. Big thanks to Team Crowded House for the seafood mornay, and Tim W for his stunning roast, and to everyone else who contributed. I learnt latter that if you peak at 30 or so people onboard, one needs to check that all the wiring holes are still above the new waterline, as the boat weight has just doubled! Also, wind generator connectors under water do give a good belt... I think we'll have to declare V 3.7 of the entertainment system a success. But always room for improvement! Never thought we could do so many dishes in a weekend!! RIght, now what's happening over Waitangi Weekend...? Link to post Share on other sites
Clive 13 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 ...shame I used a light line on the tack which then exploded just off Cheltenham as the breeze freshened and tightened a bit ...right in front of a camera I fear !! let you get away with that one Paul! Well recovered btw. Great party Tim ... and thanks to Crowded House for the chowder - very good. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Sorry I didn't get there, I was going to Squid around and try to annoy people, but I only got as far as having the boat finished (sort of), now have to adapt the trailer to take it, of course just took a week off to go sailing so now rushing to see if I can make it for the Matakana Raid. Glad the MOunt gaty was appreciated Link to post Share on other sites

ab1974 1 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Right oh - Mahurangi weekend 2013 Who is planning on heading up? Weather behaving itself we are going. From the NZMYC website I see the 7pm "non-race / cruising event" finish at Sadler point is planned. The MCC post saturday party to be held at Scott's landing looks as though it is on with the big band, but BYO drinks and food. Link to post Share on other sites
Vorpal Blade 89 Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 Vorpal Blade will be there, hopefully this year the weather will be more cooperative. Link to post Share on other sites
