G'day there all. What a splendid and brilliant arvo of sailing it was on home ground today.

Got home with a bigger than normal grin on the dial, my missus Gracie really thought that I had a coat hanger stuck in my mouth. The only drama is that the forever longing for a chance to live it again is so great! How lucky are we all to be involved in this gig (Crickey!).

I managed to take some photos a few days ago. Jason and Gavin, two of the many, many, many good citizens of Scarborough were kind enough to circle me for a while.

Had a great time and thought I might share the experience.

For those who can't make it out on the weekend, may your God have mercy on your souls!!! For those that can, make it a good one!

PS. The one who enjoys the most wins.

Cheers

Gili

everytime he went past he was doing a 'board-off'

Well spotted Solfled, Jason's epic session went a little pair shaped at the end. One of the lines
sheared straight through the kite.

Neil Taylor at Hold The Line Kites fixed everything.

He was back in the water in no time
