piebuss 0 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Where are all the hardarse sailor that are always banging on about wanting to do something challenging ?

splashprincess 17 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 For those crew that don't have boats for this event, come to Welly for the Port Nic Regatta instead. We have boats looking for crew for the 3 day regatta on at the same time as the 3 Kings - racing Fri 22 Feb to Sun 24 Feb for the PHRF and IRC Nationals. It's not an offshore but we will have some breeze and a great party! Link to post Share on other sites
RushMan 31 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Anyone else KNOT wanting to be involved in disappearance of Fineline? Good thing Hamish doesn't look at this forum otherwise he might find out about this plan Link to post Share on other sites
markm 30 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Don't quite know how FnG got dragged into this but Hamish, you should be ashamed, an embarrassment to sailing. Have you not yet taught Finelines people that crew should be seen and not heard? Link to post Share on other sites

Absolution 7 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Yes Mark they are a mouthy lot... I have a great deal of difficulty getting them to tow the line both on and off the boat. ...and to the crew: if you want to organise a new Cat-3 cert, Satphone, #4 jib and bank cheque for the full value of the boat then you are welcome to take her for the race!

Maybe he can arrange all that! Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 so hauled the truxton out for a look yesterday and to work on the keel to find my rudder is snapped clean in half through the bottom gudgeon. Bumped something at xmas but never thought anything of it. Its seen some action before. Un repairable as core is rooted. Anyone got a transom hung rudder that could be retro fitted to my boat for sale? Not looking good for us.(going to try hard to get to the start) Expect to see more entries this week.

Rhys 0 Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Hi Skins We have a spare rudder off our Y8.4 you're welcome to take a look at. It's functional rather than flash, but might get you going again in a hurry. Rhys Link to post Share on other sites

kenneth 0 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 With Mr. R out of the race, I am now also looking for a 3K (and Balokovic Cup) boat. I've already taken time off to do the race, and quite looking forward to it. Sailing CV available if requested. Link to post Share on other sites
Changed 10 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 The call goes out on the forums- 'We want longer races. Really challenging stuff. Like the old days!!' The clubs respond- Southern 600, White Island, Three Kings. And there are ten entries!!!! It must be hard for the clubs to plan. Link to post Share on other sites
