col j 0 Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 same thing on the force. pete spent about a million bucks calling people to see if they could come. ended up with 13 which was good. didnt stop our sorry asses from falling over though. presume pete has told you im good for the pons racing if needed. too fat for the bow of your boat though.

wal 27 Posted June 26, 2011 Author Share Posted June 26, 2011 Yeah he did mention you were keen . We'll be in touch this week Anyone else keen for that? Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I just moved up from Christchurch, the city kept falling down and they didn't have any boats, so I decided to relocate. I used to crew foredeck on a 30' shockwave in Florida. I also cruised a 50' Beneteau out of Baltimore which we rarely raced, it was more of a drinking boat than anything. If you're short on crew again give me a call at 021-08251257. I'm self employed so I can usually drop whatever I'm doing to go sailing, just don't tell my clients. I'm 27, about 6' and 180lb so I won't dip your bow and I move fast. In the meantime, happy sailing. - Dave Link to post Share on other sites

wal 27 Posted June 27, 2011 Author Share Posted June 27, 2011 People drink on boats? That's a Bad Thing isn't it? Sunday's looking quite light - might get a look at the code 0? Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Yup, roller furling with a blender for margaritas, I miss that boat. Plus it was docked around the corner from One Eyed Mikes. I don't remember much of it, but I hear I had a good time. Link to post Share on other sites
ec12nz 1 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I don't remember much of it, but I hear I had a good time. Get out on Demonstrator and this may happen again - if only I lived in Auckland I'd be out with Wal like a shot. Link to post Share on other sites

Mothership 6 Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Have to give the obvious answer, Mark - not with 8-9 on board. Not sure what the guys have hit two handed. Link to post Share on other sites
Marshy 30 Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Had a few good rides the last simrad race two years ago on the boat with Timmy heading out to Little Barrier. Higher than 17's anyhow. Cant remember the top speed though. Even the little mercenary hit 17's two weeks ago! You guys must need more sail area... anyone know a good sailmaker? Link to post Share on other sites
