Classic Australian Wooden Power Boat Association

Hi Guys, i'm looking at doing an informal get together at Lake Burrumbeet near Ballarat sometime in the next two weeks, mainly as a shakedown for Ken Lemin's newly restored Zarak. The lake is very weather dependent and I can only look ahead 10 days for approximate conditions. The Lake has excellent free camping options as well as toilets. If you are interested in joining us keep an eye on this thread and i will pencil in dates as soon as the weather seem appropriate.

Had a bit of a look ahead this morning and the weather seems to settle on the 20/21/22 of October so after talking to Ken we have loosely booked in those dates

Sounds good Ray. I'm really looking forward to this catch up.

In consultation with Ray we are going to push the dates to cover that weekend as well i.e. 20-24 Oct. Everyone can be free to come as go as you please on whatever day suits. Fingers crossed for the weather.

Above is a clickable link with directions on how to get to the camping /boating area. It's on the south side of the lake, nowhere near the caravan park!!
At this stage Wednesday and Thursday have the best weather but the temps seem ok for the weekend, maybe just a bit wet

As long as the wet is under not over it will be great.

Who's going when?
I'm looking most likely around Thursday or Friday or maybe both

We're thinking Fri for a few days but are watching the weather, if it does turn bad may just drive up for the days (married to an actual worker )

I'm leaving Wednesday morning and should be there about 1:30pm.

Sorry guys, but I'm a non starter. Have fun and fingers cross for pleasant weather.
