Hey Guys

Just a reminder, due to last years uneventful season, paid up Bayside members from last year have this years membership for free and new members still pay last years prices for new memberships.

Come on down, get a smile on your face, wind in your hair and have a race

Just confirming racing is on tomorrow. Should be a great day

12 noon sign on. Remember if you were a financial member last, this years membership fees have been waived. All levels of sailors welcome, why not come and give it a go!!

12.30 sign on, briefing at 1pm, racing starts at 1.30. No one in freeride fleet last race so come along & give it a go

Magic, the wind has swung back to a northerly. It was saying nor westerly yesterday which would have made racing interesting. Hopefully now the influence of the sea breeze will bring it back around to a nor easterly, which will make it perfect for some high wind duels. Are any of you GC speedsters coming up today? Brad and Phil in particular??

Awesome here at Wynnum. A good 20 knots here already from the north east.

Awesome day out

This cold beer tastes good after a windy day on the water

Magic day, time to get some high wind kit. Plenty of carnage but still a fantastic race with plenty of high speed duels. I hope the boat crew were not out there too long. Thanks to them and all the bayside crew for another great event.

yeah there was a heap of carnage at the turn buoys today - a hoot to watch.
We were rescued by the Coast Guard - big thanks to them, they do a great job. Made land at about 6pm.
We were very happy to be on land before dark!

Holy crap, you were out there for ages. Did the motor get wet?

Everything got wet! Its hard to pinpoint what went wrong with engine.
All was good, we were pulling in the last marker as a large wave rolled through and the engine just died.
Took a while to be rescued as the Coast Guard was having a busy day.

Thanks so much for all the work you and jess put in. You are doing an aboslute top class job. Great courses , spot on timing with flags

Thanks Shane and Jess for another great job in the boat.
Also thanks to the organizers what a cracker day.

What a bugger, glad you got in before dark but a nasty way to end the day. Thanks again for running the boat, as Simon said it was a perfect course in trying conditions.

Hi Shane/Jess

Just want to say sorry for you being stranded out there for so long. We will do all we can to make sure it doesn't happen again and to be able to get you back to shore if it does.

Sorry to hear Shane and Jess, you guys did a fantastic job today. It was pretty wild out there at times.

Hi all

Results are up on the website.

I think we were all caught out by the strong winds so a lot of sailors did not have numbers or very dodgy numbers. This makes the job for the boat crew so difficult.

So be warned from now on if you do not have your proper sail numbers on both side of your sails we will NOT record you place.

I know this sounds tough, but I sure you will agree we need to make life for the boat crew as easy as possible

You can get numbers through Digital Ink on 3390 6288.
