None of the Manukau clubs have anything scheduled for this weekend, or Monday.
Early morning/late evening tides have probably put a stop to that.
One thing that could be done, subject to enthusiasm, and decent weather, is an Out and Back cruise, departing from your favourite launching place early Sunday Morning, and going out with the tide.
With a little communication and planning (eg swapping mobile phone numbers or similar), all the boats could meet up somewhere, either for a BBQ on the beach, or just raft up for a picnic, floating down the channel.
Trailer yachts would be best, as obviously the rafting-up idea wouldn't work with Lasers, but anything with a halyard could do it!
Once the tide starts to flow back in, we could all head back to where we came from.
High tide is around 7:30 am, so it's an early start from Weymouth or Mangere, but without work or school on Monday, it doesn't matter if we get back a bit late, just as long as it's daylight.
Next weekend (29/30 October, 2011) seems to be a busy one, with sailing planned at most clubs for both days.
