Barry is just back from a sail at Muriwai and reports that the sand is hard and flat and just waiting for 40 blokart sailors to rip through 100 km of racing.

Faced the reality of Blokarting at Muriwai yesterday! 2.0 hours at home preparation of wheels/​tyres/​bearings and load gear.

You love it Bruce, that's why you do it! Of course you now have to change everything to get ready for Bruce Pulman Park over the weekend and the Auckland Champs.

hi, The good news is we have wind. The bad news is Saturday it's starting SW and then moving SE during the day.

Originally sent by: Grant Bruce Looking at NE 25 Knots and a fair bit of rain. It managed 5 knots at Orewa this morning. Dargaville's off (wind won't go round in time).

Haydn and I are going to Muriwai this morning - should be there about 11am. Low tide 12.07pm and wind a slight 48 knots at Manukau Heads.

Dave ORCA Bush and I plan to meet at 8:30 AM at Omaha at the Surf Club tomorrow Tuesday for a wet and windy blast. NE forecast and wind right through the night.

Hey Nick, Yeah I know how the cords can get tangled. We had more tests today. We had it running and drove the car to the surf club, was surprised at the range… then everything...

Originally sent by: Dave Pearson Yes I saw them. Its a pity it was so far away so we couldnt recognise who was on them. Was it from a live web cam at the surf club?

Great day at the beach. 15 turned up for the fine weather, 15 - 18 knts winds, smooth hard sand with plenty of room for a few quick races and just flat out hooning down the...

I think a lot of people have missed the point. Yes the ABC does charge $40 per year to join the club and another $20 for national affiliation.

Originally sent by: Russell A couple of guys on Thursday night told me about it. In the past the Northern end has always been ok but apparently there were a couple of...

Looks like southerly change now coming through a bit later. The forecast this morning is: "Outlook:Saturday:Southwest 20 knots rising to southerly 25 knots at night.

Originally sent by: Russell OK, looks like a few are turning up at Muriwai. The work may have to be cut short earlier than expected. May not get there for 14.
