Of 1,900 images over 11 months after her return to Brisbane, to her return to water in early March 2012, no less than 1,500 documented her 25 week overhaul (a nice euphemism for ‘complete and utter gutting and rebuilding’) in Ian Eastgate’s shed. So there’s definitely a book in the making but, for now, an abbreviated chronology, with key statistics summarised in the sidebox on page 11. Work began immediately in May 2011. As I hacked and crowbarred my way through the preparatory stripping her waterline lowered a quarter-inch each week. More than half a tonne came off, mostly jagged bundles of mouldy timber panelling and dankly rippled plywood. Wardrobe and rope lockers had to be savaged out in situ, as did fo’c’sle and aft cabin bunks and some of the wheelhouse fixtures, plus WC and forepeak partitions.

    2020 ILYA Dues Volume 15, Issue 30---------- June 11, 2020 Dear ILYA Members and Enthusiasts, I want to update you on the status of ILYA regattas for the summer of 2020. As you know this process has been time consuming and arduous, yet has had some heartwarming moments. The host clubs who worked so hard to get their bids approved were asked last week to make a final decision, with their Board of Directors, on whether they could host their awarded ILYA regatta. Their decision processes were painstakingly thorough. It was exceedingly difficult for many to give up on a plan that they have been implementing for better than two years. However, if the regatta is not in the best interest of the club or the community, it should not happen. Please know that RCC and the ILYA Board will not forget the commitment you made to this process. For those clubs that had to say “No” your efforts will not be in vain and we are eager to get you back in the regatta rotation. This is what we know so far: E Invite at White Bear will not be held at White Bear C Invite at Pewaukee will be determined next week MC Invite at Okauchee will happen with restrictions upon RCC and Board approval X Champs at Geneva will not be held at Geneva ILYA Champs at Okoboji will not be held at Okoboji IOD East at North Lake will not be held at North Lake IOD Champs at Beulah will be determined next week While events may not happen at the original sites, an exploratory group of RCC members and fleet captains are analyzing and exploring other lake opportunities.

This event was one of the most difficult events that we Check out our Support Wall !! have competed in together for some time. The conditions proved extremely challenging with the majority of the races being run in between 25-35 knots. In such a contrast to the last world cup where we sailed the majority of the races in light wind conditions, it was nice to have the same performance in the other end of the wind scale. Most of you would have seen that on day one we broke our rig, while Click to like our fan page... leading and only the final reach remaining. We managed to finish this race in 24 but it was a disappointing start to the regatta for us.
