Cheers Wineman - thanks for the photo post bit of a concern about that photo looks like I've just left the Mardis gras not a tag team sailing race -- need to delete that -

Had a great blast though- some of these guys are actually a little serious about there racing - even if social - we came fourth or something in the first blast (was a tag team and no idea on the second)- beer was nice - friendly natives nice chicken and salad - can't believe they're all raving about how good Wanda and Gerroa was that day - should have had a few waves before hitting the runway -

ahh I love the smell of av gas while your sailing - the jumbo's scare the s***t out of ya when they blast the engines as you gybe by the runway!

Have a great xmas - strong N'er's forecast for the weekend over here and bit of swell- sat at wanda and sunday to Gerroa yee haaa!

It's only organised to the extent that..."who's here today - let's have a race around that buoy out near the end of the runway, & back to the beach. Ready...GO!"

The Xmas race was a tag relay.
1st Prize - 1 x Coopers Pale Ale Stubby (just to keep youse SA'ers happy)

Down the track we are looking at affiliation with official NSW assoc'ns for all the obvious reasons. Only been going for a month or so (huge effort by Des in getting it up) & the level of interest & participation is growing strongly.

Go to NSW forum & look under Kyeemagh races.

It's all about promoting the sport, participation.....and FUN
