townsville regatta

just uploaded some cool shots from townsville sprint series.

My girl is home

Finally the boat is home. I went and picked it up from Queensland Yachtcraft today and she looks fantastic. Nedless to say i have spent most of the day running over everything replacing ropes and suss looking pins and what not and slowly putting her back together. She is now red ontop which is a sexy new look for her. Im still waiting on the wingbars to be touched up but should have them in the next few days :) gave her a light buff followed by a wash then polish to get or the grime and whatnot off her so shes super slick. I am super happy to have her back and cannot wait to jump on her again.

Accomodation for hamilton is sorted, thanks Ben!!!! and should be a really fun regatta with lots of sprint races and the occasional beer or two or eight.

who's coming to hamilton?

anyone coming to hamilton for race week in bladeriders?

Still Boatless and teetheless

well the op went all well and im full recovered. But i still dont have a boat. Which sucks as the breeze has been pumping and offshore the water is crystal blue and completely flat!!!! except for yesterday where we had a typical summer breeze....Dad managed to get out whilel i was at work.....i think he is secretly training to beat me and if we have foiless regatta i think i could be in trouble as he has some serious lowriding speed. I have been working with a sail maker and have been discussing the prospect of making a sail which i am looking forward to investing a bit of time and money into the idea. But this may not be an option untill after nationals as i have a new sail coming from ka. Anyways tomorrow im going to the boatbuilder to help out so he can get my boat done hopefully for training next weekend. Other than that all i can do is look at side and look at the trees blowing back and forth and wish i had my boat.
