Hang on Leon, I didn't say I would be watching Coronation Street
Arturs pass now closed. I'm sure the'll get the grader out in the morning. I'll be there even if I don't get there untill tomorrow arvo. And I don't care if we spend the weekend drinking and playing cards at the camping ground

Fritz I reckon 300ltr of fuel and some good thermals and set off up the mac. Boat as far up as you can and get some coaster to collect you and the boat at the headwaters of the mac. Never say die

Hi Stuart, Yeh I reckon we wait to see what tomorrow brings, the weather is supposed to ease, like Fritz says once the road is cleared well be right, even if we have to miss Bruner out no big deal we will get staight in to the river stuff on Sat.

I'm not going. It'll be no fun for my wife, son & daughter in cold & possibly wet conditions. They are not 100% addicts like me. Will call you in morning to confirm in case you don't see this.

No Worries Colin, everyone has to have fun or you will end up with a munity, its definitely not much fun being a passenger when its wet and cold.

I've heard from the guys over on the coast. Cell phone reception is not too good so the messages my be a little garbled. Here's what happenned today:


Tony737 was given a ticket doing 93.5kph on his way to get some oil just before the run.

Fritz's boat reaches 39.5kph on the GPS.

Mike has a new modification to his hull, compliments of the earthquake rapid.

  All part of boating (not sure bout the ticket) and I think your telling fibs about a chev powered boat Clark.

Keep those reports coming though Clark it's good to hear how the boys are preforming (or not).
