Easter weekend.

We will be holding an invitational sprint race series on Saturday April 7, before the Manukau Regatta on April 8.

The regatta will probably follow the normal format of 2 or 3 old school olympic triangle races.

The Sprint series will be run on a new innovative idea that hasn't been tried before, but will certainly work up a sweat if there's wind. And thats just the race officer!!

If I have my way, Sprint entry will be included free with Regatta entry, or $5 just for the one event.

Weymouth yacht club sailing boats.

Murray has spent a lot of the winter fixing up the club boats.

The Jollyboat has been stripped and refinished, with some new gear added. It now looks like a pretty formidable machine. I believe Murray will be racing it around the clubs for the next couple of months, so lets hope it goes as well as it looks!

The red Sunburst has also been given a spruce-up. All the leaks have been fixed, and the soft spots removed.

Thanks Murray for all the hard work, and good luck with the racing.
