WE'VE POSTPONED TO SUNDAY BUT UNLESS IT ALL GOES HORRIBLY WRONG WE WILL NOT BE SHIFTING THE DAY AGAIN.

IF SUNDAY TURNS OUT LIKE SAT WE WILL STILL BE GOING

Moonwalker · July 03, 2009, 22:40:37 CET

So how many boats are we in for Sunday?

skip · July 03, 2009, 22:44:25 CET

I closed down the other PC so not sure, and still waiting for final numbers.

Don't think we're more than 15 though.

Enjoy it guys because I think this will be our first and last Offshore boat competition. It's been too much hassle and let downs to repeat, the weather has become too unpredictable.

Instead offshore boat events will become Raduno's instead.

Dont let yourself down Nick. The problem is that the weather has played dirty tricks on us. Offshore competitions are more interesting although its the first time for me. Maybe we can organize a deep bottom competition too sometime.

All of us know that its hard to set up all this together, so we understand your feeling. As from last meeting it showed up that this was going to be very professional even if not for the competition the safety briefing was excellent. Here although its a competition we all know that we do this for our hobby, so every one must understand other and help as he can.

Weather played us very bad with this one but does nt mean that we should stop doing these just for this.

Hello nic Dont let yourself down. Today i went out was very disappionted because of the wind i felt in the morning. yesterday evening i also felt the wind at 9pm and was in a yard surrounded by buildings and said shit tomorrow not good.
However i still went out to check the boat and the sea was not that bad hitting force 3. went off filfla about 12nm and not a damm thing. Trolled with the 9.8 which gave me at 1/2 throttle 6knot and consumption 5lter/ 2hr. so good luck guys for tomorrow.

, C U out there !

shanook · July 04, 2009, 14:52:50 CET

all those leaving from B"Bugia tomorrow give me a pm so that I know who is competing. Will be at jetty with Ramio. If there is wind and any smaller boats want to wait till it becomes a bit more light I am willing to wait with them at the harbour opening. Let me know as otherwise I leave for the fishing grounds as soon as Gaffer signals the competition start. I will be fishing the direct south and turning to filfla on the first ridge
