Bay Club Race day

Hi All,
Forgot to mention that the transmitter is finished and if you want to hear what is going on anywhere on the track during the racing you can bring an Fm radio with earphones and tune it to 88.0. Also hopefully the first of the wireless speakers will also be working on the track. Thanks to Allen for putting it together, Theo for the Battery and Don for the Car radio.
Cheers
Richard
A steady 12-13 knts at Karioitahi yesterday, almost 90 degrees to the beach, meant good fun sailing for the 6 who turned up. The beach is back to normal, only one real soft patch and with extra low tides lots of beach to play on although a bit lumpy right on the water line. Zoomed around for 3 hours before the hand started to ache a bit. I guess there was a turn out at Muriwai and BPP as well with the nice wind.
BBC race day next weekend. Quite a few making the trip at this stage although may depend on weather. Put a message out if you can give a ride or need a ride to keep cost of trip down ( a petrol price drop this week would be nice!)

Muriwai was beautifully fine, with a steady wind almost square to the beach (slightly south).
The tide was as low as I have ever seen it and the beach profile very flat, firm and even.
Only one other kart there, plus 2 casual 'rentals' and 2 buggies with kites.
Out-ran a chasing greyhound 'on the loose', so must have been doing well over 50 km/h at the time.
Close to 30 kite surfers were also having a great time.
