For LoEG’o it was the usual pre start drinks and with young George Wilson again racing with us.
He reported on his visit to the Doctor last Monday for a very red and raw throat, a result from
eating a family size bag of corn chips while sailing , this week he had same size bag but just
standard chips with plenty of water to drink. Problem solved we hope this week.......

Early start for our boat LoEG as there was some needed maintenance to be done, 4 ropes to replace, broken Van block and patch a hole we made last week in the headsail.
We also saw that Axis was replacing rope on the mast with Mitch from SF working hard five meters above the deck.
That’s real team work in Div. 1.

Last saturday saw the first handicap race in this Autumn season in a NE 8-16 knots . First off the mark Windfalls had a 4 minute advantage over XWP. First stage of the race was WF holding the lead in the uphill stages and then around mark 6 the downwind stage that has seen the boats with spinnakers race away was upon us.

The day started with a great wind which built during the day from 10 to 15 knots NE. Good sailing conditions.

Upon arrival at the club we found Pat playing with water again. He was using his gurney to clean steps and ensure all are safe....thanks Pat.

A beautiful day on the river was predicted with a week of high temperatures and strong sea breezes during the day being the norm so why would Saturday be any different... The starter put us on the NE alternative course which sends the boats up to Goat Island, down the Balmain shore then back in front of the club for a couple of laps.

With the globe girdling Barry "Who" once again missing, we set off on the intrepid AOE with 2 regulars and also the very brave Simon, who has volunteered as sheethand for the day.

We started on Number 1 course in a lovely ESE breeze as usual battling the maxi's of division 1 and as usual more than holding our own (should I rephrase that? :))

Sailing on the Parramatta River in summertime - does it get much better than this? The breeze filled in just before the start for Division 3 and we were set for the afternoon. Our assistant starters (Pete and Carmel) set us on a #5 course, our alternate course for a good Sydney nor-easter. That would set us up for a lovely long spinnaker run from Cockatoo Is all the way back to #1 in Putney.
