Thread: Goolwa Wooden Boat Festival 26/27 Feb

See you there Mik.

You going to try to burn off the mixed fleet race? I did rather above expectations with the duck last time. Was one of the best performers upwind in a light but solid breeze

I forgot to register Mik, but I might drop in on the fleet while nobody is looking.

As everything is free this year you might be able to sign up on the day.

Also Duckflat and I are probably going to organise a get together at one of the pubs on Saturday straight after we close at the end of the day.

Also anyone with a storer or Duckflat boat can contact me if they want to show it off on the stand.

Cool

Does that mean we might get to see a Eureka in the flesh Mike?

I only found out this was on recently so have other plans for part of the weekend - but I have always wanted to go to one of these so am trying to arrange a leave pass for the Saturday.

Yes and I'm attempting to finish the rig (only 12 months later).

Does anyone know if Tacoma is going to Goolwa ?.
She left Portland today , and turned right.
Regards Rob J.

I'm just a little confused here (and thats not hard) .
Did Iain Oughtred get to go to Goolwa ?.
I was given the impression he and a film crew would like to see HS . I got her on the water and all , but nobody has contacted me .
It doesn't worry me , I'd just like to know what is happening.

Hello Job J & all,

Good luck to all for the Goolwa "show", wish I could be there but I've done my dash with Hobart in terms of both time & cost.

But because of all the interest in SA for small backyard boats I'll bet Goolwa is a feast! If Iain Oughtred isn't there he'll be missing something special, and that would be a real pity. So, let's hope!
