The cruise North to Rosslyn Bay on Friday was comfortable and pleasant- Blue skies and a gentle breeze made the whole Friday days work very enjoyable!
If we saw a sail or two on the horizon we assumed it was Loco and Immigrant and we would move into 'let's catch them mode" for a while until an unknown cruiser would appear and we'd all go back to relaxing!
Geoff was prepared on No Problem
we all took someone with 'Local Knowledge"
Arcadia won by about 20 seconds over Loco
Geoff and Dave were QGC ready!!
Kym was ready for anything..............
Arcadia .........off and racing
while we took the scenic route.....
Keppel looked beautiful...........
Ray caught up on HIS beauty sleep...
on the Mumms Dirk took a few photos ...........during the race
nice to be home ..............

Ray never likes to leave the work behind
Immigrant and Loco may have arrived into the Rosslyn Bay Marian first, but they spent a wee time exploring the mud before making it to the actual pontoon! Rosslyn Bay club is prepared for this now as they send a boat out with a few refreshments!
Morning bought race preparations
then Loco got their ducks in a row................
Geoff was prepared on No Problem
Immigrant had the team at work............isn't that water gorgeous!
we all took someone with 'Local Knowledge"

Immigrant and Loco tried a teams approach
Geoff and Dave were QGC ready!!

Ray caught up on HIS beauty sleep...
