Nicely done The only chance you get in 4 years for an extra day in Feb and the MBM nail it.
Nice bit of sticking the slipper in![]()

Man hardie what would we do for a bit of flat water or a speed bank we can only dream about it.
YES we do have burrum but thats 3 to 4 hrs drive and still to get the right tide n FORECAST , you dont mind if we come over for a bit of a speed run with u fellas would really appreciate that![]()
Yer Baby we gained 7 points today big effort from the guys.
The only thing we could have done is distance but just not enough time on a work day
. Its was tough conditions with a few crashes here and there.
Pretty good cosidering we competing against sandy point times
.
great stuff thats what the comps all about.
sorry Hardie![]()
ta Vando
Hey you Moreton bay Mobbers, when are we gonna get a group photo with the medals hanging around your neck, I need to put some faces to who I'm hating![]()
Snides buzzed me on the mobile an hour or two ago, "Have ya checked the challenge mate" he said, "we're on top"!
"God sails on the Swan" he said!
I thought he might have gone a bit hard on the Creatures Pale on a Friday but when I checked - he was on the money as usual!
Snides and Claude sat around at Pelican Point for a few hours this arvo waiting for a greasy sea breeze to fill in. They had the hour glint in their eyes - it never filled.
Bugger me if Pierre and Vando dont deliver us the month - maybe [i'm never sure with Vando - he is a tricky one and i have a long memory].
Anyway, if we do get the goods for Feb Snides and I have agreed to buy you two a slab of your beloved XXXX - but ya have to come and pick it up - isn't that all the incentive you need!!!
On the other hand we might [slim chance] do a Sandy mission for Al's gig later this year!
Hey sailquick how about we make a deal we'll give you the warm weather and you give us sandypoint![]()
Im used to sailing in cold weather , i did live in Croatia 4 about 7 years and sailed every opportunity in winter with temp's reaching 0 deg n good 30 to 60 kts of wind but unfortunatly wasnt into speed then.
But your right there is no need for us to whinge it just gets a bit frustrating when you have good wind but no flat water.
About burrum you need the very low tide so you can sail the outer point to get a starboard run otherwise you'll have to sail portack and bare away from the bank beacuse the course gets too square but we will see in the future what really gives.
Um. My arithmetic is a bit shaky, but is it true that the Moreton Bay guys have handed the months win to the Swannies?
This whole thing is getting very interesting indeed. ![]()
My understanding was the MBM was between the Pit and SRM in the 1 hour category. When they improved it knocked the Pit down a point but had no effect on the SRM as they were already above them in that categotry.
In the Nm category, MBM were below the Pit but jumped up to 3rd on the last day but were still behind the SRM so didn't effect their score while knocking the Pit back another point.
The Swannies definitely lucked this one out.... A nice Steven Bradbury effort (your competitors take each other out)
It's not the Bradbury effect
It's the Butterfly effect.
Those Beautiful butterflys in Qld flapping those wings, bowled over the Sandy point boys whilst the gentle breeze they created lightly tickled the SRM crew.
It's all this weird cosmic interconnectedness thingy, plays even more havoc in the individual rankings
HI Vando , Pierre and the rest of the team. T´ís Sat morn here in Spain and the first rounds of the Worlds begin in bout 5 hrs. Congrats on the fine results from Friday.... lookin at the forecast a good start to this month is also in store. Go hard guys. Mikey in Spain.
