Yoo hooooo, SEQ on the map for 2008, well done people. Now if you can just get our rankings up b4 I sail again that would be bonzer ![]()
Cool Gesty, lets try and get off the bottom of the table, I've noticed a lot of new Aerotechs for sale.......??
Hey Fitz, I went out on the wave kit at Queens beach today with the 5.4 . If you need the track I can put it on. Won't be fast though
about 25/26 knts
hi guys,
i went out on the fish yesterday at VP figured i'd be a team player and at least log a track this month.
sailed for 2 hour continuous, lost a couple of calusses on the hands ouch!
anyways,
downloaded the track, it was gobledegook, looks like my 101 is finally stuffed, been 3 months now with the lcd screen not working.
so figured i'd pop it in the microwave for 3 secs as i'd read on here before that moisture in the unit can cause issues.
POP!!!!
oh dear. ![]()
I heard of a lady Who tried to dry her poodle in the micorwave.
Same result - SPLAT! [}:)]
You two must have read the same forum --lol
fair call guys.
in hindsight it was only ever going to end in tears. but the unit was pretty much stuffed anyways.
in my defence i'm not that bad with electronics. have been known to super charge some guitar effects units in the past and have built a stereo or 2 from scratch.
i did thunk ahead this time and took the batteries out before i put it in the microwave. all was good until the 3rd second. maybe should have just used a normal oven or only 1 sec in microwave. prob lucky i didn't stuff the microwave too
.
yesterday i was whipper snippering the yard and thought. i wonder if i can hook the motor up to me land sailor? I remembered the gps and thought i better not.![]()
Not bad mate, wind's been a bit dodgy lately though.
Hopefully these weird weather patterns return to normal by the end of the week...
Did you get out today? Looks like the racing guys had a good time on the bay ![]()
i couldn't get out on sunday.
was my youngest daughters 2nd birthday.
went to VP to celebrate and watched everyone else sail while playing in the kids playground. it was good 8.5m weather.
Anyone from our team got a leave pass for tomorrow? Went and invited the inlaws to lunch tomorrow. Sure way to get the wind to blow, you can thank me later![]()
I will be able to get out later tomorrow afternoon after lunch is all done, anyone else going to GB tomorrow?
Hey Fitz
Good to see you down there mate, sorry had to rush off home.....![]()
