That is a classic, 50 years this year celebrations at Jeremy Rogers in the UK
-
Sure is good to see Blink sail to her promise well done you guys
-
Ha unlikely to get an answer
-
Yes and she appears to be just inside one of the better known tourist ones....
-
Yes for obvious reasons the west coast wont happen, and Manukau now closed to shipping of any size, so we are left with the Firth- but who will pay?
-
Was hers, but she quickly sold it after trying to shift Brown Island, the new owner patched her up and was cruising in a week, she is working on a whiting I believe
-
Look for significant speed increase on this test boat, particularly to weather. They have been working hard.
-
Which NZ team has entered the One Ton Cup revisited this year to be sailed in Europe? The organisers say there is a team from NZ?
-
New ETNZ boat getting launched today....
-
Yes knowing all on board I really feel for them, and IT it woudnt hurt to tighten up on some of the posters of the rambling kind here.
-
If you buy her please get rid of the teak, otherwise you will regret it. If you must, use one of the fake teak options they will protect her and last a lot longer.
-
Knowing those on board and their experience, a terrible tragedy which just serves to remind us to keep alert always, Harry Tory and Ross on way back apparently.

yes I am in the market for a pair of 28's
-
Southern Man take note of what E749 tells you

Good to see Artemis getting the win after the trials they have had, its anyones series

Was 5% in my day but I believe is 6% now.
-
Perhaps Jody on Itchy Feet has led a dodgy wire past his compass.... doesn't make sense that hard left
-
Anarchy Hupane Crusader and Blink - that's where the interesting racing will happen
-
Agree KM those two pairings will be worth watching, V70 talking big at the moment, Monday night -Tuesday morning all things being perfect. (Is it ever ?).
-
Er yeah another from Mairangi Bay here -same question as KM as we are about to upgrade the sounds on board as well.
-
Cruising division down to one boat with Moody Blue heading to Opua for repairs, and Platino still here.
-
The Swedish hanks shown are what was marketed as NZ style hanks in Europe- referring of course to the Murray hanks made here for years, the European ones are not made of the same metal as the old Murray ones though -which could if carefully prised open be used again and again. I too have experienced the wichard hanks coming away from the forestay in very unpleasant conditions (flogging) and seen them hook other halyards --very tricky.

Looks like a big seabird? There was one in Whangarei years ago
-
Have used cable ties for many years with great success- they are a lot easier on plywood and planes.
