WTF is happening with Gunshot?

What are Channel 7 going to report on now. Their 15 year old script and coverage has been thrown out the door

My dear late Dad, did the '69 Hobart. They finished last across the line getting there on NYE, being last the boat all crew received a 4/5 liter bottle of Grants Whiskey. He did the delivery back to Brisbane and by the time he got here there was not much left in the the huge bottle of Grants and...

Yep, it takes our minds off everything else they have fucked up.

It was a shitload of overkill. As someone who knows MH and has sailed with him prior to his 2handed days, he is one of the nicest people you could meet. Quirky at times sense of humor, but still a genuinely good person.   

Is there any live coverage of the finish?

Monaca is on edge tonight. Possible first Hobart winner, 

Doing pretty good Bro, busy with 2 kids who do rowing as a school sport, so no time for sailing. Miss those rum fueled discussions at the Glady Yachto.  Older bloke would make a good mastman. 

Really puts into perspective the efforts of LB in consistently finding that 2nd place Div 3 PHS in offshore races. 

Ah, a Rustard! I learnt a lot of different ways to drink rum sailing with Lovely.

Yep, that is what I was told about when HA was amended from the standard Elliott 10.5, still got the hum in the centerboard at certain speed though.

Ok, after a long day in Hobart we went to Customs House to have a quite drink with some fellow Queenslanders.  I slipped/missed a step in there and stumbled which morphed into this type of uncontrolled naruto run which was only stopped by a very solid, shoulder to the rib cage, ball and all...

Now I don't feel so bad about accidentally taking the chair thrower out at Customs House after the 2005 Hobart race. 

All waiting for The Indian to gybe

I remember some of those in blazers actually sang the words as well. 

Not saying nothing, missing it as well
