Boating / January 2010

February 2010 | November 2009
    • Nelson race gets away but not before a false start
      • With a building Southerly on Friday evening the race committee made the decision to postpone the start of the Nelson to Saturday Morning. Louise was happy to see the influx of members to the wardroom and quite a few sailors were also quietly thankful not to be heading out into the southerly storm, a lee shore and no light.
