Donnie, where's Humpybone?

The Hobie 16s have a regatta in Maleny that weekend, the famous Highland hobie Cup Sorry.

We really need to set up a calendar on one of these sites where clubs can claim dates well in advance.

We were all looking forward to seeing Russ on his new Capricorn. Well we didn't, he was too far in front.

The sea was rough, the wind was strong and the Capricorn disappeared up wind. Once he overcomes some early teething problems he is sure to give us a touch up from time to time in those conditions.

No racing Sat due to conditions and Sunday a small band of the dedicated headed out for a pounding.

Thanks again to the Belvedere Hotel for sponsoring the event.

For the record Brad Collett cleaned up on the A, with much improved Kenny Symonds in 2nd. Scotty and Leon on the Tiger were 3rd after showing us how to capsize over the finish line and other acrobaticts around the course.
