    I think you need to be a sailor to get into watching it.

    Crewed in that one year (1981?). Most years the sun comes up on a logjam of boats in McLellan Strait. The year I sailed, there were boats knocked down on lake Wellington, run aground on Metung Point & Raymond Island, and we punched a hole in the side of another boat that tacked out of control in front of us - all before sunrise.

    At the moment, you could sail right across Raymond Island

    We had Nationals down there once, a nice place to be.

    I'm going out on the bay tomorrow......brrrrrrrr
    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.
