Ubeaut's Wooden Boat Squadron - SA division

I'm waiting to here what my visitors are doing, but I agree I think Saturday is not really a goer. Stay tuned.

**Boatmik** · 22nd April 2010, 11:10 PM

I think the weapons have been resolved above.

I am happy to be someone's Second.

Can't see myself getting away this weekend - unless it's a quick squirt locally.

Seabreeze predicts 20kn Sat, 15 kn Mon and below 10 kn for Sun from late morning so Sun arvo would be the pick for rowing and paddling.

Will keep an eye on this just in case.........

If saturday's going to be horrid, which it looks like it might be, I'm happy to go up any day of the weekend - I'm kinda loose ended

I just couldn't resist Daddles - they have pills for this you know.

Enjoy your weekend sail you lucky fellows.

My PDR gets started Sunday.

pffft, exactly the sort of reply I'd expect from a bananabender. You'll be happy to know that I lived in your country, despite the difficulties obtaining a visa, but returned to the one true land of wide water ways and plentiful harbours ... hang on ... I came back to Adelaide where we dream of days on the Onk and regard Westlakes as 'boat heaven'

I hope your PDR is square and slab sided ... just like the plans

Now shove off, enjoy your waterways and let us dream of having somewhere that has water to float in

Judging by the weather reports, sunday is the better of the two days. It'd need to be sheltered though (like the Onk or Westlakes).

Is anyone up for a float?

What's happening at your end Mike?

Richard
still happy to go out either day to anywhere that's wet

unfortunately, Johmar has easy access to this...

Attachment 135555

which sometimes looks like this

Attachment 135556

and this

Attachment 135557

perhaps there is merit in SA "annexing" Qld...

**johmar** · 25th April 2010, 08:48 AM

Annexing, No, No don't bother with the legalities.
Anna Bligh is selling every other asset Qld has - roads, rail, ports etc.
Just have The Squadron club together and you can purchase outright.

$9.99 and wait there's more.

Yeh, sorry Richard...another assignment due this week. No boats for me!

We'd love to, but alas, there's nothing left our kitty.
It was all sold off a decade ago... power, water, rail, ports. The lot.
Still have a few hospitals, and the police, but their management is largely
outsourced. In any case, I understand the Japanese are reluctant to sell...

A mate had an urgent problem last week.
He put in a $12 bid for a Cowboy Outfit on eBay and was desperate to
withdraw it when he learnt he was 6 minutes off owning NSW State Parliament...

cheers

A bit hard to fit in the backyard.

He should be cautious when bidding for a bear pit too (as the NSWelsh sometimes call it)

forecast for next weekend
Saturday Fine. Partly cloudy. Min 10 Max 19
Sunday Possible shower. Min 11 Max 20
I'm going sailing come hell or high water.
(Grumpy about last-minute issues which stuffed up what free time I had this w/e.)

It's Mother's day so I'm booked sunday arvo and the lad is playing saturday arvo (rather than the morning)

Being a weekend, there IS no time before midday on a sunday so that's out too ... this means you'll all be out there boating doesn't it

Richard

**b.o.a.t.** · 3rd May 2010, 02:34 AM

standing room only on Westlakes & the Pat.
Slightly more at Goolwa.
probably.
feel better now?

Hey Clinton, if you are still following this thread, are you still interested in a "Sydney Chapter" of the U-Beaut SA Division ;). Or even its own Div?

I've got a Duddlepuck that's just about to see water. Well, when I say "just about", that probably means "6 months"...

Cheers,
Alex.
