Have hardwired inside and out, however lately found a bluetooth JBL to have a way superior sound !

After 20 plus years on no. 5 I am looking too, it worked great in Okahu Bay ,Glendowie, Milford and Westhaven but not looking so good lately since the formula was changed. Though I have just heard that there is a new mix been released -though only time will tell ...

The entry (3rd) deadline has passed... where are the announcements

For anyone that may be interested the A class cat worlds are being held at the Milford Cruising Club over the next week or two, come down have a look and a civilised drink on the deck.

Will take a while for 2 days 20 hours to be broken by a monohull, and they went up to Pittwater first . Second boat in this evening

Entries to be in by the end of October, one French team maybe two Italians , no one has picked up a spade yet in Naples -ready for the boats in May 26 I dont think so. Apparently Ben and Grant have kissed and made up -but Ben doesnt have a boat?

First Picasso on the way -so maybe 5 racing.

V5 and Wild Thing not coming then

Was on the hard for some time in Tauranga....

Good points mischief, as many of us started the coastal in smaller craft, the classic division is a mystery too with Dehler Dufour and Bavaria in there as opposed to Kiwi Kauri boats .....

Back to AC38 -has the secret AC partnership been signed? Has Sir Ben got access to his boat from the last event? Are there any entries ? And when is the entry deadline as they have breezed past the first deadline.... Poor Naples -have they been sold a pup.

And as I drove past the other day -Okahu Hardstand still largely empty, no one maintaining boats or learning how to and they have legislated good copper antifoul out -except for on ships of course!! Goodness I am getting old and cynical

A superb event , I have done over 40 of them and a great family hangi and dance afterwards

Well if you were not there in the days of the Citizen , you would not know...

True true -I well recall some brawling in the squadron amongst the Patiki crews after match racing, now thank goodness the average age has radically increased and we are likely to see them cruising and fun racing with smiles and beers at Kawau on Labour weekend ....
