Hastings Winter series

The Hastings Yacht Club winter series starts this comming Saturday 14th June. The 1st start is at 11am for those challenged with 1 hull....we luckier ones start 5 minutes later all going well! The yacht club is holding a BBQ after each race (bring your own drinks as they are not licensed) and we are particularly keen that all competing multihulls try and make it to the BBQ... Tim and Rod on Quickskips are preparing to go north and uphold the honour of the club at the nationals in a few months time. Not wanting to peak too soon (Tim is recovering from his broken leg in a boating incident!), they plan to take a relaxed approach to the winter series... until of course George gets ahead of them when I suspect the red mist will reappear. At a recent informal meeting on Shuttle, they did express concern that Frassld was improving far too quickly.... Rumour has it that there are 2 new Multi's about to join us and a 3rd likely in 6 months time... this is great news. The first is recently arrived in Hastings after a quick trip down from Queensland and looking good on her new swing mooring... we look forward to finding out more about her... Mr Sin (Mark Stafford) has purchased a boat similar to Redshift to help keep George honest and I believe a well known couple have taken a Quantum leap forward which will deliver their new baby in 6 months time.... See you on Saturday...
