Pointed Reply Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 Can you please keep us informed of full race results and not just the Foam Sandwich Division. How many other Maris made it to Brisbane? Will the results appear on the RQRS result page ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humungus Posted January 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 OK I think this is how it goe's. There is only two super sloops. John Merl and Andrew Cook from Tanilba. We are all starting together and doing the same course. Cat div Mick, Wayne, Leon from QLD, Zac Breaden, Mark Colecliffe from WA, Laucky Tucker from Tanilba, Lea from WA, Jason from Mannering Park (having a few hull problems) SS: Merl and then Cook Don't quote me but it would be fairly close. Tucker has pulled a few suprises out of the box to perform a personal best. Jason looks thretening at times but just not finishing the job. Big wind blowing today so this will sort the men from the boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
korwich Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 Hey Mick, whats happened to Scotty, was he a no show or has he got problems or is he just not placing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bitch Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 Work commitments stopped me from going to the Nationals this year. If I'd gone at least I would be guaranteed 'Bronze' in the Super Sloop division. As it stands Cookie is at least guaranteed 'Silver'. All he needs to do for 'Gold' is run over the top of John Merl. Maybe that's what Mick has been doing as he was practising this on Boxing Day. Tanilba Bay has the most boats there and should be the most successful club. Good luck all!!

Humungus Posted January 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 Todays results: High winds, big waves Race 4. Mick, Wayne, Leon, Mark, John (SS) Race 5: Mick, Mark, John (SS), Leon, DNS for everyone else Micks still a winner. Zac lost a mast. Many other gear breaks. It looks like cats are faster than super sloops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
humungus2 Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 Race 6: Mick, John, Wayne, Mark, Jason, Leon, Lauchy, Zac, Cooky, Leigh 8k-10k Race 7: Mick, Wayne, John, Mark, Lauchy, Cooky, Jason and Leon had a bingel and went home early. Zac broke a halyard. Leigh capsized and got stuck in the mud for over an hour. And yes Scott, he cleaned the sail properly. Mick to swap boats with Cooky today. Should be interesting.

humungus2 Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Thanks Rod, it was a fun series. Lots of great photos including the one where Leigh from WA has a clanger smash with Jason from NSW (Manering Park) Jason comes of senond best.

ZAX Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Congratulations to Mick on a very well sailed series. As it turned out, Cooky actually took the Bronze in the SS division with young Jason K. just taking silver at the completion of race 8. Hope to see a larger SS fleet at Port Stephens in 2008 ! Starting all the Maricats together seemed a good idea and nice to be able to also compete on yardstick (although some of the Cats were quicker even on scratch times this year).
