A huge thank-you to the Portarlington Club from me personly, I was made to feel right at home from the instant I walked through the gate, both the shore members and rescue guys were more then willing to go that extra bit
A job well done smile

Unfortunately life doesn't always go as planned so sadly I didn't get to sail in the states as I'd hoped, with kids in tow I did sail @ Warrnambool in the afternoon in 15-17knot winds gusting up to 20knots frequently, this was fun but the 2.5metre swell sapped most of my strength on the day leaveing me asleep in the comfy chair when I got home.... Saturday morning I was well n truly battered n bruised, so with my aches n pains I made the trip armed with the camera..... 495 photos later I'll shut up and start uploading.....


here's what all the fuss is about....

Pics from Race 1 for Saturday arvo onwards....

NB:
there was an infringement at the start, so I haven't posted the photos at the gun so there's no fuss made about who did what.... and the committee's decision of an infringement occourance and penality stands as is decided by them....




please take into accord the fact that I was NOT in the dead line for the photo as to who may or may not have jumped the line....
the start, taken milli-seconds after the gun..... wink
