I you kinow of any brave souls looking for more winter sailing , Lake Bonney is having winter series

*Sunday July 27th
**Sunday August 17th
***Sunday September 7th
All racing to start at 1pm.

Might be long day from Adelaide but we will be doing it ( round trip from Adelaide too)

might be worth giving one of the locals there a call before to see numbers but hey, a day on the water is better than one spent mowing or gardening or anything else

Hi David,
I wont be making the drive for your winter series.

Christies is on tomorrow, 20th July, 12 noon start. Tides are good with 1130 being low. Seabreeze shows the wind allover the place with 3.5 metre swell which fits in with what I have been seeing all week, could be fun. I will post the bom forecast when it arrives.

OK Darryn,

How was the racing ? What were the results ? Christies don't appear to list any results in the "off season"

Regards,

Peter

No winter race results on the website, they will appear soon.

Attached is another of Petes pics from the Adelaide winter race two weeks ago, I purchased this one so it has lots of detail.

One of my favourites from Petes website http://www.petermuirhead.com/galleries/10/photos/10-003.htm

Looks like we've got wind again this Sunday hopefully I'll stay upright a bit longer. Who's sailing?

Yeah any more wind and I might drag the mozzie down there for us old whackers to play on. I've got to stay upright this time because I've got a little video cam out front.
