Weather permitting, Galvo, myself, Billy and others are planning a bit of a downwinder from the South side of Port Beach carpark to Swannie carpark.
Plan is to be ready to go by 1600. Give Galvo a call for more details (9335 5636).
If it's a bit of fun, we might just get a regular Sunday thing going, and blow me down if the Obee and Cott aren't on the way back to the start !!
Leashes a must.

Only as old as the woman you feel - which makes me slightly over 40 and a touch under 50.

Sunday forecast a bit sh1t. Tomorrow looks better

I'm certainly not to bothered that I have to work on the weekend.. Tuesday looks the goods too.. See you tomorrow arvo Hilly

So Stimo, I take it from your garage sale that you must have something new on the horizon - any hints yet ??? Does it start with D and end in C by chance ???

What time at the pub will try my new up and downwind machine

That is a frickin sweeeet Ducati Hilly.

In the process of getting either a Triumph Bonneville or Harley Iron 883.

Are you guys still paddling or straight to the pub? It's looking pretty westerly with not a hint of south in it.

What looked like pretty average conditions didn't deter 8 starters from having a crack at the Sunday Arvo Port Beach to Swannie ( or Dutchies in this case) down winder. Boards ranging from a DC 17, 2 x Fanatic 12'6, Starboard 14, 2 x Amundson 12'6, 71 12'6, and even a Supluv for good measure. The W/SW wind direction was countered to some degree, by an initial 2k paddle West, and then re-group before heading to the finish at Dutchies. Some great runs were had by all, and in the spirit of the arvo, boards were exchanged mid race by some, and Galvo kept an eye on the tailenders to ensure a happy ending by all. No results were recorded as participation was the main aim. Excuse of the day came from Stimo on the longest board of the day - "I'm sure my rudder was stuck hard to port- I kept having to jump in to check ". A big thanks to Brony, Lucy and Anna for helping with the cars, and yes, Galvo did stump up the ice cold bevies on the lawn at Dutchies !!
A unanimous 'Thumbs Up' for the arvo, so the plan is to have another go next Sunday. Give Galvo a call for details.
