Smit Lamnalco turned on perfect light sailing conditions for the annual regatta.
The harbour was blue and sparkling, a tug or two chugged past ... oh wait .. Fiona never leaves home without the Tug timetable !
there was no shortage of Paparazzi
The boys in Blue were on the job
we all made our way to the Quoin Basin
There was some too-ing and fro-ing
and a wave or so
The girls were concentrating
the Impulse fleet were out in strength
but there was the odd Mann out
the spectators were well supplied
Damien and Mitch gearing up
Ray got his swim over early
and then came the cats
times got tough at the buoy rounding
Josh Young
Luke Johnson
Rob Graham
Steve Lewis
Sheldon Haines
Peter and Alexa Mann
Jim Cox did a 'Ray'
Darryl Skinner
Georgia had to keep Granddad concentrating
Darryl again
Bevan and Chris had it together
A Weta in there
A flying skiff of Chaos and Anarchy
Race Two
There was a fair bit of yelling heard across the water
Ray Hobbs
There were lines and line ups
David Cue, Luke Johnson, Sheldon Haines
Maria Mohrholz and Ray Hobbs
it was wet
.. and it got WETA
There were more than enough 'Problems' with Matthew
Sunday dawned with a Big Breakfast for all...
It was pretty but flat!
Excitement was hard to find
But the boss was happy
The skipper was behaving
Terri was out of the sewing room
Jodie was pitching for Gold
Morgan was finding things a little flat ..
Eliza was up for anything ...
the mums were in on it too ..
Then the skiff found a breeze..
The water was glassy
.and then it got ugly....
the fleet moved along
It was hot,
It was close....
It was clearly tiring ....
and then it was done ..
all over bar the prizes
Many thanks to Glen Wetters and Fiona Stevens of Smit Lamnalco
for the sponsorship and the delightful company!
