Hi my name is Chris Blease and I have recently joined the CAWPBA.
I met Greg Carr recently at Yarrawonga and met Dave Pagano and saw his awesome collection years ago.
I recently acquired my Dad's old raceboat "Wildfire" as listed under "Record Holder" in You Need This. I hope to add
a few things to the "Record Holder" topic once I get the hang of the Board. Also I have a new 17' Syndicate on order
as well from Peter Adcock.
Please bear with me if I make a complete stuff up of this, as I am new to the Board.
Cheers
Chris.

Re: New Member
Hi Dave, check out "Record Holder" in the "Do You Need This" index. Hopefully I have the terminology right, please correct me if I have this wrong!
Cheers
Chris.

Re: New Member
Hi Peter, as far as I am aware, I'm the only Chris Blease in the Navy, so I'm the same person. Most people know me for better or worse! I am currently onboard Success stuck in Singapore. I am here, there and everywhere, especially at present! I will have to check your boat on Youtube.
Cheers

Re: New Member
Hi Peter,
I checked out your boat on Youtube and the photos, looks great! I went to the first gulf war as well on Success. My memory is getting a bit hazy in my old age! Did you live in 6 mess? I can tell you plenty of "waries" when we meet up!
Cheers Chris.

Re: New Member
Hi Peter, seems you lived in 6 mess, then 12 mess. I remember quite clearly now! Good times, I was tanky during the gulf war. I now run AMRs and Engine Room half the time. Unfortunately missed out on gulf war 2 would have been great for the extra$$! More money to spent on proper things like
powerboats! Singas is great for R/C models and I am like a kid in toy shop!
Cheers Chris.
