You are a sick man Garry

Seriously, I am very impressed.........the shoulder and chest hurt even more thinking about it. I am hoping to be back on the water in time for the McCrae winter series.

See you in a couple of weeks.

OK then, you get charged kids rates .Does that mean we don't have to feed you as much as a adult either .

Hi Gary,

On the other hand you may just walk on water.

Regards,

Peter

Hi all,

not sure if all of you will think this is good news , but I survived the Traralgon Marathon held earlier today. Finished under 4 hours, was looking good at 30km mark passing it around 2hrs 30 mins . But the legs packed up after that . Luckily my arms are still working so I can still use the computer , but the legs are gone . Hope they are working by next weekend .

Looks like 11 Mossies entered now, with a few late ones should be a good fleet . Should out number other classes again, look forward to the look on the A and Taipan guy's faces again .

If anybody hasn't booked with me, for Saturday Nights Meal at the Morwell RSL, please contact me ASAP, as numbers are topping 45 and booking is for 50, look forward to seeing you all and doing a bit of handicapping Saturday night .

Hi Gary,

Congratulations and well done finishing the marathon. I bet no other sailor could attest to running a marathon no matter what elapsed time.

If the conditions are normal for next weekend you won't need your legs. You will just need someone to carry you to the water. And if your arms are still working then no-one else has a chance.

Good luck to all the Mozzie sailors for next weekend.

Regards,

Peter

The good news:

We have 13 entries so far and only one other class has made it to double digits.

The bad news:

We are in danger of being outnumbered by Optimists!

but surely we are twice the boat?

Gary

my crew is onboard for your 50th so can you add one more to our lot thanks

see you soon heading down tomorrow (friday)

Awesome figures.
119 entries overall
14 Mosquitoes
16 Optimists
No others in double digits.

Should be a good weekend

Great weekend - though a bit light at the end to say the least.

Pity the channel nine coverage was filmed on Monday (barely any wind at all).

Good results from Tim, Matt and Gary


A bit more wind would have been nice, but could have been dangerous too.

Thanks for Saturday night Gary!

It was a good reggatta this year despite the light wind! I'm not sure how anybody else found that top mark rounding in the final race... but it was chaos... and a lot of fun! We managed to consume a Laser... the young sailor had to punt himself off our kite pole before the forbeam swept him off his feet... all at VERY low speeds!

Liz took a pile of photos of that race, heres some photos of that start and rounding. You would have had more wind if it wasn't for the pesky Mozzys everywhere.

Hi All,

Some additional photos. I have sent through the bulk of the photos I took for upload to the Mossie albums.

Hi all,

great photo's, thanks to those that took them, David will hopefully be able to use some for mossie article for magazine, I forgot my camera as usual which I had intended to take on the water photo's with. I hope to write some Mossie bias stuff for Fast Cat Division, anybody else want to do some for Mossie Div?

Hi Jeff,

looks to me like the pesky Mossies have already left the start line in one of those photo's.

Let me know if anyone needs the Hi Res versions of the pics and i will be happy to email them.

Good job with the photo's

I've put up a pile of full resolution photos at

You can download the full res photos if you want them
I had a great weekend again it was great catching up with so may people

Hi Jeff,

great lot of photo's really catches the mood of the Sauna Sail, almost poetic when you watch them in slide show, just needs some classical music behind it.
