anyone want to go for a raceboard session this arvo? Melvill or anywhere? I've just got back from Auckland and i'm already itching to do some more racing!

Rode melville til dark last night. last one in. Will be doing the same tonight. Lots of others will be coming down to melville to test and practice and maybe even some racing.

Come down MRT. the more the merrier. If you have a start watch bring it too as it makes for more competitive starts.

Wind again... wohooooo....

Hey Dale. If we get a few numbers i might be able to organise a start boat and race course. no promises but it would be cool if it all came together. would be about 6pm start if it happens. so guys should be out on the water by 5:30.

Was fun - testing this arvo the new NJS race and its as sweet as a WA sea breeze - smashed a few runs to top mark after 1 hour on board with the crew and got the vibe- lots of potential to go very fast...

Yar ....many of us massing on the hills & now we have decent boards to ride and got the vibe we attack the tribes in the East at sail Brisbane.

After the last battle where we were smashed we come back to fight again.

Oh and it's not going to be pretty, we've sharpened our fins and won't hold back.. Brisbane is critical ground to make up. We're coming in numbers, this time it's war!!!! [}:)]

I don't want to know what pee web sites you like late at night - I just thought you asked if the WA crew were going to sail Brisbane

' looks like all 4 of us fighting for the 50 points on the kiting entry list...

Chopping Jelly fish - looks like the Swan River in Perth on any hot easterly summers day...

Lets race this arvo.. 2 laps of the usual course at Melville, the start line is downwind near the point. @ yellow markers.

Bring your stop watches
