Here's praying for good weather. Looking forward to a lap in Tomboy (as long as we don't get picked up by the fuzz again) especially now it has such a shiny bottom. :lol:

More winter here so got time to add a couple of photos for your viewing pleasure?

3 are obvious, the fourth shows the line up around Tomboy at the festival, same location as two years ago right out the front of T42 Glenn!

I only know one boat on my pontoon, and generally we are put together as similar boats, so could be an new boats to view for me?

Cheers.

Chivs

Torea is looking spectacular. So good to see it on the water. Looking forward to seeing it in the flesh next week.

Not sure about Tuesday, but I think Fleetwood is a Chris Craft look-alike and I'm guessing Baby Dolphin will be just superb sitting there with its gleaming mahogany.

Weathers looking good Chivs, (thanks) was wondering if anyone was hitting Tas soil (softly with landing gear down :o ) early on Friday?
Also, if anyone has decided late to come down to Tas, let me know or pm fatpigeon to see if we can organise accommodation.

Torea looks great Chris, I've sent a link to Warren, son of one the early owners and he agreed too.
