Anyone got any cruising plans for Easter?
Weather is looking pretty good for Sydney although winds a bit light.
We are planning on going to Pittwater

I am thinking of spending one night around Refuge bay and one in the Basin.
But plans are fluid.

I will be at Lake Macquarie pretending I know how to sail a dinghy.
Good luck getting a mooring in the Basin at Easter, not that Towlers is much easier. Refuge has been very quiet over the past few weeks, except for the houseboats.

You've had some pretty good races lately haven't you?

Have a good time at the Lake. The Feral has been loaned out to try to spark a good sailor's interest in the class, but I don't think he's doing the States. I was going to do it but when my old boat got hit by a log while moored and we bought a new one, I ran out of time. We should see you next year when we celebrate Feral's 40th season.

The results only look good cause no else turned up.
So has Tom Burton borrowed the Feral? He will be there in a borrowed boat with his girlfriend, should be good to give the guys at the pointy end a run for their money.
If Feral does turn up, I expect that half a mulberry tree will still be in it.
Where would you like it next year? How would Batemans handle it? Would be fun watching 40 boats try to get off Corrigans and over the bar.
