Ok boys…

The GPS Action Replays are now up. Have a look at some of the wind shifts in races 6-10 (Sunday).

No wonder we had so many different winners.. it was all over the place!

It can mean alot of things such as
WHY start on port or WHY not start on port.
WHY use 11.8 in 25 knts
WHY tack to early for the top mark
Etc.

Is there any particular reason you have a question mark on the back of your sail Rick??

I thought Brett was the only one who put random stuff on his sails.

Some of the best racing of the season. I’m going to miss the Thai and Mas guys. Great to see Sam Fawkes and Mike Nelson going to fast. (not that great actually). Looking forward to the Slalom Nationals. I hope we can all remember how to reach again?….Hey Rick, i have a great photo of you port tacking the fleet, i wish i had the Wayne Bowness port start on Saturday though. One of the best…

I was slowing down Rick. I got a 6th at one point on the weekend… and I couldn’t even blame it on using a 9.8m like Brett :-/

Seane,
maybe you need to slow down a bit and then they might see you.

Not to mention no photos of the cherub that plowed into me (missed skewering me with the spinnaker pole by about 12cm) … jesus!

Do those guys know anything about right-of-way, or maybe to not sail through other fleet’s startlines??

oh yeah. I can’t read.

I’d like to extend a big thank-you to Mike and Sam Fawkes btw.. keeping Brett in 4th overall gives me a nice buffer for the overall pointscore…
