Hard to pick it was such a great day, but for me it was the description of Reg's crab encounter, just wished I's seen it!

please tell more please!

The phrase "squealed like a girl" was used afterwards

Claude's win of the KA sail, the look on his face, and then that he donated the KA Sail to the Juniors!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep we've all done that once or twice, occasionally without stepping on a crab, but that's another story for another day

I got a perment scar down my back (about 15 or so cm long) from believe it or not, catepulting and being slung onto a crab. Ended up in the Victer emergency dept. getting fixed up after peeling off my wettie at the end of the session and finding out there was actually something bad lol... Got the pics somewhere i think but they don't show the best of it unfortunatley!!!

Absolutely brilliant thats what it's all about.

I could'nt have taken it home anyway, it had "keep away from boiler" stamped on the box.

I knew this place was dangerous, but it was a war zone.

Rocks, crabs, cobblers, channel markers, weed banks, sticky mud .....

I think I have post traumatic stress (the crabs, the crabs)

Reg, has a special relationship with marine creatures. He and the cobbler go way back and he always like to show his appreciation on meeting one.

The crab is a new one for us river rats, we're used to having our toes sucked by blowfish , not crabs with atititudes lurking in ambush.

The 'squelling like a girl' is a signal meaning, bring beer quick.

Highlight of the day, not a kite in sight

I think a round of applause is in order for Claude lecoq for donating that Ka Sail to the juniors. Of course im happy being a juniour but still wait to go Claude.

Just drew the Juniors and Kiddies for the KA Sail, and if ya wanna know the winner log onto the gtc website, I'm wrapped with the name that got pulled out, maybe a little bit of Karma in the Universe went through my fingers??

WOW!!! thats just amazing.......... what can i say, i'm rapped guys. Thanks so much!!! A massive thanks to Claude Lecoq for donating the sail to be drawn of course... very generous and greatly appriciated!!!

Now i just got to get out on the water when it arrives. Final year exams this week , but summer holidays as of lunch time friday so will be able to get out heaps. Looking forward to it...

Cheers

It's the trees, there's been a few kiters come looking, but we quickly point out all the trees, and tell them kiters beach a couple kilometres south is a much better option.
