Looking awesome for this Sunday, big winds predicted from the North so Wynnum will be the go. Can't wait.

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

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

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

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

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!

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

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.

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.
