Re: A Tasmanian experience
Ahoy all, not often we get visits from “Royalty” apparently the new President is on a member drive and will do anything to encourage more financial members for the club. Sunny Tasmania being his first port of call!!

Re: Nirvana 1941 Chris Craft
Ahoy all in particular Mr Carter! The last comment “seeing it in the flesh” has prompted this post, because I have! Fond memories way back June 2011, Nirvana as purchased by “the dreamer “Bob who plans to restore it to it’s former glory! Well done Bob, bloody marvellous mate!

Re: A Tasmanian experience
Ahoy all, summer has arrived in Tassie with no wind this week, so Tomboy taken for a run on the river Monday and today Torea got her turn at my local go to spot!!
Just got home before the rain hit, at least it’s not cold and windy! Season greetings to all and a happy safe boating new year, cheers.

Re: Nirvana 1941 Chris Craft
Fantastic Bob! When I first saw Nirvana I thought why aren’t you fixing that up? Now I get it, being retired having the time, patience and your eye for detail and getting it right is the way to go! I take my (captains) hat off to you mate, superb restoration job/story …so far!
Thanks and cheers mate

Re: A Tasmanian experience
Ahoy all!! On a balmy August day I took Tomboy for its first tow on the new trailer. A lot less mucking around launching and retrieving now but I did get my feet wet checking things out and bloody hell the water was freezing! Just ask the motorists who were invading my space! Cheers

Re: Nirvana 1941 Chris Craft
I am thinking of getting it out of the shed to commence construction of various Christmas Gifts from clever/skilled Santa Carter!! Very impressed Bob and re the constant throw away comments of Nirvana being underpowered I was surprised how Glen’s Triple went with the Hercules 6!

Re: A Tasmanian experience
Ahoy all!! Must be the season for new or trailer work? With a little $$ from the sale of Quickly Too I have invested in a new trailer for Tomboy, a few more adjustments and will be ready to give her a run, cheers
