Getting Ready - Bring on Spring

Beautiful Whitehaven Beach

Skye anchored off Hook Island Resort

(Tongue Bay, Whitsunday Island)

As you may have gathered from the lack of recent posts, sailing has slipped down the priority list somewhat, due to work and house renovations (which seem to go on for ever !!! )... but the session is coming ....

RANSA races start at on the 31st Oct, while the ASCC races (the spring series) commences on the the 7th of September... We did ok last year but this year lets win the Spring and Summer series....

I am keen to develop our skills so we will running spinnakers in the forthcoming races, and training will be provided ...

The choice job is the bowperson ... working the pointy end of the boat..

... So if your keen let us know..

We need 5 people to manage the spinnaker so there will be lots of opportunity to learn and have fun..

Below and above are some pictures from our recent trip to the Whitsunday Islands, where we managed to have lot of rainy weather, gale force winds, and an Arm breakage ( courtesy of the high gloss titles in Arile Beach ).. Tony has mended well ...

Bring on the warm weather, see you out on the water...
