catsailor.net Posted May 6, 2002 Report Share Posted May 6, 2002 The 24th NACRA nationals are being held in Adelaide this year and invite all NACRA sailors, their families and friends to enjoy what we believe will be a great occasion both on the water and socially. Social occasions at the club will include a gourmet ‘meet the fleet’ barbecue, pasta night, a gala new year’s eve party and our presentation dinner. The complimentary NACRA keg and Bundy coin toss could also provide interesting highlights! catsailor.net is looking at organizing a container to ship boats to Adelaide.

Guest Team Goose Posted October 23, 2002 Report Share Posted October 23, 2002 Experienced Crew wanted for SA nationals. Crew required for a 5.8 spinnaker rig to sail with a West Australian Skipper. Must have trapeze skills, and spinnaker knowledge, not neccessarily a cat sailor. Competative boat with all new gear. Needs to provide own accomodation. Prefer weight less than 80kgs.

Andrew Holden Posted October 25, 2002 Report Share Posted October 25, 2002 Goose, I have found the perfect crew for you... Not sure if he has had much experience but you will be good in the blow. http://home.att.ne.jp/red/sumo/Takanon2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Team Goose Posted October 26, 2002 Report Share Posted October 26, 2002 Thanks Andrew, I guess even with a deck ape like that the 5.8 would kick an F18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Holden Posted November 6, 2002 Report Share Posted November 6, 2002 Goose, You have a lot of anger building up in that scrawny body of yours mate. Luke mentioned you were a bit upset about all the F18 stuff. The F18 is a great boat and has the ability to keep the 5.8 honest but at the same time we are racing other F18's. We were at the Lake Cootharabah Cat Regatta this weekend and it was fantastic to race against the Hobie Tiger knowing that we were all racing with a strict one rule system. We managed to get 13 boats even with 4 tigers pulling out at the last moment and the 3 other Nacras being stuck on the Brisbane Wharf - We could easily have had 20 boats - not bad for the first outing. See ya in Adelaide - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems unneccessary for you to be making comments like this Andrew. You may have moved up to the F18 fleet, but it isnt necessary to make derogatory remarks about either the people or the boat from the class you moved on from. Just remember, it is not necessary to tear down one class to create another. Also you have my e-mail address, this shit does nothing towards allowing the class's to co-exist, take it up privately if you have an issue.

HooD Posted November 8, 2002 Report Share Posted November 8, 2002 Looks like we have a couple of hooks in the water for the elusive strippy holden fish, but still no bites Goose, you wouldnt be even contemplating a F-18, I know Im not, and I know your in the same boat as me, sailing around on my own most of the time. As far as im concerned it dont make a scrap of difference what you sail, as long as your having fun doing it. Now all I need to do is bend the laws of space and time, so my mast turns up last week hehe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Holden Posted November 9, 2002 Report Share Posted November 9, 2002 Goose and everyone else... I was ONLY joking - The 5.8 is a great boat and I have sailed one (not very well mind you) for the past 10 years. I want ALL cats on the water and healthy racing. I for one hope that the 5.8 fleet will now grow as it is probably the most affordable high performance boat on the market at the moment. I have never "torn down" any class of sailing and want us all to be on the water. I appologise for the comment about your body Goose - many men would probably kill for your well proportioned masculine machine. See you in Adelaide - I will buy you a Bundy - that should cheer you up. P.S. did you see the guy looking for a boat to crew on in the F18 forum ?
