Well it turns out that Ben had a few assets which the bride was particularly interested in and even after an attempt by Ben to sway her over to my brother Daniel whom isn't currently attached she was adamant that only Ben would do. She managed to steal a kiss on the cheek but that was all that was available so in despare she decided to jump up on the bar and dance by herself. Some of the other ladies started shouting "there's Bear Grills" but it turned out to be Daniel wearing a BG T-Shirt. Interesting evening at the Stanley Pub and an awesome weekend all up.

Wicked weekend, the social side is always as good as the sailing..... and the sailing is wicked.
I did bring my wave gear.... didnt get wind at marrawah at the right time but my time will come.

Couple of pictures from the camera phone. Steak was awesome at Marrawah pub. The bar lady did snigger when we ordered them... unbelievable.

Went for the parma the next night but must have got upgraded to the "bride and
parma" deal.

There is a video of Stanley but that doesn't belong in this thread.....

The waves were perfect height for me, don't like em too big, I get scared. Had another NDE (near death experience). Got stuck in the impact zone, lost my gear, had to swim for it, thought was going to drown AGAIN if I panicked so swam on caught a wave and landed on my gear. Phew!! Didn't have my bouyance vest on, very dumb move for me, so went back out with it on and felt much more at ease.
As far as any "Duck" talk goes, there has been no duck fatalities caused by the Sharp/Robertson clan, so time to move on........
