nsw mossie sailors

Its looking like Ben and myself are the only mossie sailors in NSW almost not worth trying to start an assoc. up here.
Im going to a few clubs this w/e to try and find some more, lets just hope there out.

Will,

I know that Lake Jindabyne has at least 2 Mozzies that are actively racing. <img src=

I think you will find that yourself and Ben are the only 2 active Mossies in Sydney. You may find a boat here and there in rural NSW though.

As per phone conversation, I have a mast and a set of plans for you. Is the other mast for Ben??????

yeah I think your talking about Ben We've already been out on the water together testing both boats.

Im sending an E mail to the secretary of lake jindabyne to try and get in contact with them. If I can get at least 5 or 6 to start off with we might be able to grow or at least have a state title to start off with, but I need information and contact details to get in contact with them.

thanks Peter

Thanks for that Stephen much appreciated yeah the other mast is for Ben and Ive already contacted him about it, he might be coming down this w/e for it.

Had a look at your other post about the titles, some nice shots of you guys out there.

Will,

I just checked back through the forum threads and found the other NSW Mozzie; It's Joey from Ballina.

Peter

I think he was trying to sell his mossie last time I heard. Same problem as every one else up here no one to race against. When I start to race im going to be racing mainly against F18's Taipans and Nacra 14sq.
The closest Ive got to compete with is the nacra which is 1/2 a point slower on yardstick and is 14 foot, how embarrasing.
Im thinking once I learn to sail this mossie properly a kite's going to have to go on.

You should contact the two guys selling the mozzies in the trading post and ask them to pass on your details to the lucky new owners...
Keep an eye out for more boats selling as well.
Good luck,, <img src=

Will,

Once you get the skinnaker up you'll really get some close attention. Everyone else might be a bit embarrased by their own performance particularly in light to medium wind strength.

Regards,

Peter

I might be at pittwater on saturday, so I might see you there

yeah Ive noticed Tim's been doing really well with his cat. Had a look at the kcc archives and in one regatta Tim did really well against every class of boat. <img src=

I would like to put faces to names this weekend with you and Ben but I work shift work and only have every second weekend off. I'll be there the following weekend weather permitting and also the weekend after which is the Bullets Regatta. I also need to try out my new trap harness as the Cheap Burke one I got with the boat isn't the best and as other people may verify a rope sling would be more comfortable.. <img src=

Hi Will,
dunno about NSW, but does Canberra count? I have just completed a hull repaint [just in time for the Canberra Winter], and now with the weather warming up will take it for its first run this weekend on Lake Barely Tolerable, [otherwise known as Lake Burly Griffin.

Should be interesting, a bit of a step up from my Windrush. Just hope the crew [daughter] enjoys it.

Paul
Canberra

I would say that canberra(act) would count if we want it to.
could you please pm me your name, sail number and contact info Mob, tele or email.

thanks Paul

William

Rang up lake jindabyne and found 1 mossie sailing around there. So now that make 5 mossies in NSW. Just need to chase up the one's sitting on the front lawns

Thanks to Tim I was able to collect a few extra names Which I have contacted them through email.

If we can get them on Board we should have the numbers to get the assoc. up and running.

Long way to go to get the numbers vic and sa have but its a start.

Thanks again Tim

Have 7 names so far anymore inners from nsw/act?

Bandit I think its time you found a mozzie!!!!!

Guys,

There is a strong chance that I will be in NSW for a large part of next year....doing course.....and looking at bringing boat with me, planning on sailing somewhere so as to give me a day away from the books.

Where do you sail....and my boat should be rigged for spinnaker by the time I get there.

Also happy to help in whatever way I can to get things up and running.

Where will you be staying?
This will probably effect your choice of club.
There is the Palm Beach Club on the Northern Beaches or the Port Kembla Sailing Club on the Southern Coast of the City.

That would be great. Im looking at getting a spi next year would love to check out any other mozzies.We definatly need help
BEN 654

add another spinnaker to the fleet. After a ride on an f18 will definately be getting a spinnaker.
When the new boat is ready putting the kite straight on to it as well.
What about Kurnell CC on botany bay south sydney.
Thanks for that Dave might need all the help we can get at the moment
with all these spinnaker mossie's coming out What asr the hobies and nacra's gonna think when there waaaaay behind us <img src=

well we just lost 1 person due to the mossie not being quick enough and unable to keep up with other 16ft cats. Just wondering if its any use trying to start an assoc. in nsw.

Hey Im still sailing the mozzie.
Who said the nacra was faster.
Mozzie won 2 out of three scratch!!!!!

My Bad..
Ben did not sell his Mozzie as its the equivilant of him chopping off his left arm
Mozzie power is still strong and will prove to be a force to be reckoned with!! <img src=

A kite will fix that

Cat / sloop rigged, it is a perfect platform to begin on. When you gain more knowledge, then a spinnaker can be added which will satisfy the most experienced skipper.

What other cat can you buy in OZ that will offer this for so few $$$$$. Very affordable spinnaker racing.
