The pontoon was rainbow coloured and bustling
with crew preparing for the first major event of the sailing season
Georgia had her eye on what lay ahead,
Restless; John and crew were out and about early...
Lex opted for a mono day on Super Freaky
SonOfABeach was back in one piece for a new season
Tony, Claire and Tiernan kept it in the family
Tuan led the fleet across the start line
and without further ado ,
Super Freaky found clear air
Tuan covered Intriigue
and away they went to the further reaches of the harbour
with Fleur de Lis, a late starter bringing up the rear
.. and then it was over to the dinghy fleet who suffered through a number of course changes due to shipping movements; proving flexibility can be a great benefit to the senior part of the fleet!
Race 1 brought out the willing ...
with Martin coming off second best in round 1
The more conservative players found clean air,
and the ones with L plates on played it safe
Will has grown up over the holidays ..amazing how that happens!
Charlie was not quite comfortable yet!
while Josh was cruising out in front !
There were close calls at the mark
the mid fleet players stayed together
Charlie .. bright and white out there
flashes of colour on the harbour
Peter and Christopher had a team thing going
There were big ships on our playground !
Big, big ships too
Josh was all smiles having avoided that big ship...
Martin wasn't to be caught out again..
Sailing can be vocal!
with Grunt!
Charlie was starting to find the angles
Round and round they went
Mitch is going to be a threat
Tim has a new Triple T
Maria is playing it safe
Matt is honing his skills for the State Titles
Morgan the lone Laser, stuck to her game plan
While Will tried for Cool
The burning question was ? How will Kens knees hold up ?
The final race was a relay of reaches .. but fun !
Restless led the yachts home
Three times around the mark can be wearying
Solitaire and a happy team cruised on by
Martin kept a low profile
Impressive sails on Intriigue
Pete and Chris .. smooth sailing
Pete and Chris ... Not so smooth sailing
Pete and Chris .. bait netting
Some days that is how it goes!
