Droves? I counted only 4 racing a few Sundays ago

OK thanks for that. That one in Woody is a complete ball ache. Ive seen people tie to it claiming to be the owner, on 2 very different boats, and Ive seen words exchanged between boats in regards to it.... how are supposed to know who owns it...? I think they should remove it, it chews up a large amount of space in a very small bay which is popular in ever increasing wind condition

Knot Me, the new moorings at Rakino are news to me... where can we submit? Im assuming you are talking about Woody Bay where there already is one of the buggers already

I am to lazy to do my own donkey work.. but are you saying that you now must wear a life jacket to comply with cat3?

Saw at boat yesterday fueling at Orakei Blow Me Two Had 4 guys on board

Lots of short tack beating to kick that one off.... bet they had never been so glad to turn the corner at North Head

Here is Fullers going between me and Bean Rock about 25-30m away... I was not very impressed..took these to complain but have lost the will now

You can get a tender reasonably close to Kaeo on a full tide

They all arrived in Vivian Bay, had a beer then shot off. Dean beat Moose and Brad Marsh to the beach With 2 of the 3 people I saw racing in to the bay, an arms races is inevitable, they just cant help themselves those boys

The 40s will be there

BK, I just motored to North Cape, and then back again, at 7 knots. And then just to kick myself in the nuts again I motored up to Kawau for the weekend, and then back again For $693000 I have a the solution to all your problems.....

Thats the beauty of the cup... win it and you decide

I raced Namu for years on RnB.... we would cream it downwind then have to fight very hard to keep it at bay on the beat home... we won prob half the time

What Steve said

Stock the fridge?

Do they install as well?

This is week days as well...

Orakei have infomed boats there that Tamaki Drive will be closed as well during racing.... unbelievable, wtf you going to see from there?

Ive followed this from time to time... being the armchair expert that I am, I have always been surprised they couldn't right her and carry on. Its a pretty new PCC and I would have taken that pretty personally if she was my ship. These boats are alot more technical than you think.

Oh no you dont!

My aunt had a boat up the Tamaki for a few years called Cirrhosis of the River

Ok I stand corrected, I did that one but thought it was 200... to much grey matter these days

Fish the most I have ever seen was once 200 boats, its usually around the 170-185 mark... and the Sunday prize giving was fail, most people were well on heir way home by the time it started...which doesnt give the sponsors much to crow about...

Lack of wind at Easter and that is normally the TGA race. IMHO its fine right where it is.. I note those with the most opinion here about lack of coverage and why they didnt have up to date notifications on this that and the other didnt race... The race was the hardest coastal Ive done in 19..the event was one of the best and I was well impressed with how many people managed to jump in cars, who motor in for the the Satuday might. Kudos to all of them

From a competitor perspective is was a very well run event. Pre organisation was good and from the minute we got to Russell it was superb. Prize giving was seamless and the after match was awesome...cant fault it. So well done NZMYC
