  1. I'm looking forward to the Great Barrier Race again this year.

    Cool vid. hat's a deep reef in the Orma.
  4. I did! My post is on a corner and gets used by a few people. I've put a padlock on it now - shame as now the dog walkers have nothing to wash the poo off the pontoons with now...
  5. I thought it was just me that was being grumpy about this! F&*k1ng hate it and it's a regular thing I add to the survey. I have seen owners let their dogs pee all over the hosepipes & crap on the bottom of the posts. When I see it I have a go at them and they wonder what is wrong with me.
  6. I used to have a gennaker furler on my F27R. One of the ones that has a foam type line - top down furling. Worked well but not kind to the sail so I'd get it made from some heavier cloth.
  7. The only reason I am going the ST40 route is because I have a cutout designed for it so I am kinda stuck with that format.
  8. Awesome! Thanks for that Matt - I thought it was a dead end. So I'd need a BiData ST40 and the E85001. could be a Trade Me watch list!
  9. Thanks for the info - I'm after SOG from an external NMEA source. From what I have found out though it seems like no ST40 or ST50 can display SOG - Raymarine forum. Only the larger ST60's can... I hope this is not the case though.
  10. hmm... could this be the place to ask if the good old Raymarine ST40 can be tricked into displaying SOG from a NMEA output?
  11. Yea, he's skipper on a nice yacht based in the Med.
  12. The sails were pretty good from what I recall.. sounds like there are a few issues with rot.
  13. Supreme - not as good as the Rocna - imho. bent the tip on one and rendered it useless. I dived on it to figure out what was wrong and it just skipped along the bottom - it was interesting how a slight change in the angle of attack changed things. The rocna has a welded triangular tip over the bent plat plate of the Supreme.
  14. Did the Med with a Spade. Excellent anchor.
  15. This Way UP is a good one to get then. There is plenty of room for a couple of tents on the trams to sleep in and she is hard to get into trouble with.
  16. The best racing to be had currently is in the 8.5 fleet or the foilers - SL33's. 8.5 info: http://www.multihull.org.nz/85-class/ Fun 8.5 Vid:
  17. Have any been independently scientifically proven to work yet? I thought they were in the magic water homeopathy basket still.
