Posts: 46 Fulham S.Aust | Very long cold winter and am busting to get on the water in my newly aquired mozzie ( 1728 ). Is there anyone interested in going for a sail Sat or Sun ? I have been watching the weather and it will be light winds on the Adelaide foreshore this weekend, perfect for newbee's/wannabe's .

Posts: 502 Port Noarlunga, SA, Australia | I race my Flying Fifteen at Christies and I am planning to sail it half way through next month when the season starts. My Mozzie should be on the water at ASC this Sunday for the start of the hot up series. Racing starts at 1pm http://www.adelaidesailingclub.com.au/When the season gets going I race the FF on Saturdays and the Mozzie on Sundays at Normanville which begins mid November. Darryn Mozzie 1782
