Brisbane to Keppel 2018

[SCANAS]

Don’t worry about rules Scan, we’ll change boats at midpoint. 

Unlimited bench too.

Hmm two boat race! You might be onto something.

Defiance has a good ice box. However with freeze dried food these days, plenty of room for keeping drinks cold.

Phil, move with the times, we have 12v  compressor now.

However given the fridge is on port I will need to move the battery boxes out further on the starboard side to cater for the XXXX draught LB drinks

 

[Livia]

What about a resupply at sea, oh wait!

Resupply at sea, no problem if you are 66 foot canter apparently.

 

[Livia]

Scampi is for sail. We are taking Lydia’s defiance 30 in the B2H next year. We are hoping to do it in under 15 days. 

LB  I have fitted a 27hp diesel to a 3600 kg 30 footer, I did want a good trolling speed for up the back of the Swains

PYQ - People's Yacht Club of Queensland! 

I might find a fast 29.9ft'r so I can own the race record for sub 30' for at least a year! 

Scan as, you got it wrong it is the Yacht Club for the People of Queensland, you SPLITTER

I can get us a royal affiliation cheap, from a mighty kingdom never conquered! The Kingdom of Tonga.

Scan as, you are uncultured!!!

Scan as, you are uncultured!!!

You've completely misunderstood the business model of the PYQ. Take what you can from the members, give nothing back

Judea rang, they want their Front back.

I told them it fell off.

Outside the environment.

Where the canters should play with themselves.

 

[Livia]

Shaggy, younguns today!

 

[SCANAS]

I know all about the People's liberation Front of Judea. My best mate when I was a kid was called Bwian. Consequently myself & bwiam got introduced to monty python at a very young age.

The AS model?

 

[Livia]

Is there any other?

 

[trt131]

 Sounds like it could become a destination for the wealthy yachties, so maybe the B2K can be resurected in the future with a slight finish line adjustment.  

You mean back to the future.  The first two editions went to Great Keppel Island

Only the first did. But without a deep water Marina and Sailorgirl there to interview  them the big boats won’t want to go there. Do you think a Hammo will want another island working their corner? Everyone will have to choose a side. A Keppel Race week the same time as Hammo? That this could be fun...

 

[Livia]

This could be fun for the Lota Fishing and Fighting Club.

Can't really call the race the Brisbane to Keppel Race anymore if the race continues on to the opposition island resort.

Manly to Emu Point Race.

Brisbane to Divided Island Race (my favourite)

Green Island to Girt Island Race.

Lota to Cattle Point Race

Just trying to help!

 

[Rawhide]

So does the race go through a gate at Keppel and continue on, or straight to hammo? Does this mean that Showtime is the perpetual holder of the most prestigious trophy in Qld yachting 3rd PHS Div 1?

 

[jack_sparrow]

however as the money behind the redevelopment is from a virtual currency, maybe it will be a virtual resort and the B2K will become a virtual race which Randum can sail in from the comfort of his trolls den.

The crypto currency crowd have been beavering away in Puerto Rico post Hurrican Maria. They are an odd crowd sort of cross between skateboarders, gamers and middle aged dot com wealthy types.

Guess it does!

 

[SCANAS]

$300m for redevelopment I can understand. Being worth “billions” after, nah, don’t think so. Crypto Scam.
