Well we all had a good feed then presented the trophy
Just too cap the year's results & to present our 2012 trophy we started the 1st half of the year good by holding on to between 3rd & 7th spots for each month, this gave us a good average.
In June we lost 4 good team members to the Swat team we thought we were done for the year but it was not so as I stepped up with a few others.
The second half of the year saw us score between 1st to 8th for each month having some good wind helped this & some trips to Lake Coortharaba & Burrum.
I would like to thank Phil & Brad for a fantastic effort on the lake in December both doing over 270ks in a one day session.
On this same day Vando & I made the big trip too Burrum which we both got around 40kt peaks at this stage we had it in the bag for the year we would have been hard to catch but this day really put it out of reach by our closest rival the SA Speed Demons followed closely by the Tassie team.
Also I would like to mention as we know we won the Autumn for 2012
Good luck for us for this year I'm sure we will be up there if the wind god smiles upon us or even 1st again.

Well done,nice to see that the trophy hasn,t suffered too much in the hands of the Tassies .
The trophy represents all the states who were there at the start of the gpstc and when I built it.

The base is Jarrah(Wa) The back board Vic Ash (Vic) Mast and battens Red Gum (SA) and the sail is White cypress (Q)

Hopefully its back in Vic soon

Yep, well done guys. We did try to look after that trophy Kato as we didn't think we'd be handing it over so soon
