spotted the deed on 30th Sept

[Parkercraft aluminium castings ?]

Anyone know who made the aluminium castings for Pakercraft dinghy's - looking for the bow handle which rivets on, allows anchor rope over top. Fyran may have had a similar fitting so any idea whether their parts are still available too would be appreciated thanks - salvage off a wreck might be only chance i'm wondering

[Anchor chain Young88]

try Chains Ropes & Anchors Ltd, for an actual chain diam recommendation - displacement about 2700 kgs bare

[Safety at Sea Triple Series --SSANZ]

looking like at least 11 x Young 88's for race 1, bigger than last year 

[Round North Island, 2 Handed ---2017]

Watching he Guarantee on Stb now very powered up in the NW approaching Oneroa with one tuck & a blade looking very composed 

[Round North Island, 2 Handed ---2017]

couple of earthquakes at 8am but no sign of a tsunami warning on civil defence, weird

[Round North Island, 2 Handed ---2017]

Ran Tan also looks like turned around heading NW - maybe the tracker position is out, or something local going on to avoid harbour

[Louis Vuitton World Series]

anyone found where to watch AC Toulon live  ? Sky monthly subs at $80/month a bit steep if you dont watch rugby as well & the on-line fanpass streaming doesn't include channel 5

[Louis Vuitton World Series]

hmm looks like Sky have moved the AC coverage to channel 6 for the Portsmouth event so not available on fanpass - great to see some racing at last in Chicago but likely to be hard for most to see this one

[SSANZ 100]

first 3 Y88's doing the business passing Oneroa about 10:30, Slipstream, the Sailor Moon, then War Machine ...

[Jim Youngs Book]

[Who knew the racing had started?]

otherwise all we get on mainstream is Rugby & Netball again 

[Who knew the racing had started?]

First race for points is early hours tomorrow morning, 12:30 am start - forecast for plenty of breeze it's going to be great. ETNZ did well in the practice with a 3 & 1 & BAR looked strongest - plenty of interest for us in the other teams too. We & the general public need to show we are keen & interested in a positive way, so one of our networks buy's the rights to the future events, or we suck it up & pay the app fee fair enough.
