    Variant 23 ft

    I had one as a first boat.

    Awesome design, good sail boat, easy to single hand but it is a little boat. Having 'Footloose' made me look upon the approach of that bloody horribleDevonport Ferry with fear.

    The stern wake from Kea would board the Variant and I never did look at Kea again without vengeful thoughts. Someone should send that thing to the

    knackers yard.

    Can't disagree about the location wheels, but do we really want a waterfront lined with buildings like those 2 architectural masterpieces at the

    bottom of Anzac Ave. 'Scene' apartments I think they are called.

    They are bloody ugly and a blight on the land/seascape, and if that is the alternative then I'm not sure we have won anything.

     

    Council have wanked on about connecting people with the harbour while quietly allowing the reduction of that very harbour to occur and in my view -

    make no mistake, they would have known. There have been deals done.

     

    At least if it does go to shipping and the ships are as monstrous as they sound, their will be some spectator interest as the Sunday charge navigates their way around the behemoth being flailed by a cheeky sou' wester.
