Oh .. it was me taking the photos ... an important job!!!



He went for a sail. (yep that is a $50 homemade sail)





I went for a sail

We had a chat

He went for a sail again (and ditched the boat). Now he know the PDRs come up with no water aboard!.

Well guys sorry I missed you, I'm recovering from an op and despite my best intention I had to beat a hasty retreat after getting down to the Bay.
Next time

Mike

Hi Rob,
Ta I'll take you up on that.

My PDR launch day is drawing closer and I've been plotting a day down at Goolwa with the view to getting the Ubeaut SA Squadron together for some messing about in boats.
Family has a shack on Liverpool Road and now the waters out we also have a nice little beach as well as the ramp.
So looking at late October but will post a date soon so everyone can get organised.

Cheers
Mike

Hi Mike,
I am semi retired so am home or there abouts most days.
I am building a David Payne 6 meter river cruiser in the shed at home so I would love to show you that as well. I hope to have it ready for first trials about the end of October and Goolwa is the place to do it.

Cool Rob, I was admiring your shed till I realized it was more like a warehouse Boat looks great just the thing for the river I reckon.

I'll give you a buz tomorrow and see what your up to.

Mike
