Sydney Boat Show

Hi Guys.

I am coming over from Perth for the boat show and wondered if anybody was going, Maybe we could catch up for a drink. I am thinking I will bring the boat round to Blackwattle Bay to give her a run.

Certainly worth making an attempt to touch base with each other. Those of us who did for the Sanctuary Cove Boat Show had a good time, and I think I can safely say it does add something to have put live faces to names and chewed the fat, so to speak. Agree Aquabelle Paul..?

I won't be there but it would be a good chance to meet up again and also meet more of the down under people.
Hope it is a good show and you all have a fat time.

Cheers
Benn

Agreed Pete...the two big boat shows are ideal places to meet up & put faces to the on-line personalities !
REBEL: are you really planning to bring your boat from Perth to Sydney? That would be one serious passage....maybe post your passage plan/daily legs/anchorages.

I wish Aquabelle but alas Arcturus is attached to a mooring in Middle Harbour. It happens that I live in Perth for the moment. I usually go to the show a couple of days so either Friday or Saturday would work for me. The plan for me is to anchor in Blackwattle Bay close to the fish markets which means I can walk to the show and have a very relaxing evening on the boat amongst many liveaboards who use this area. Some of them have been there for quite some time and Maritime dont seem to worry too much about them.

Perhaps for those who will be there we might meet for lunch so pick a time and place either inside the show or out and we will get together.
My mobile is 0402919294.

Getting ready to come to Sydney for a few days on the boat and for the boat show.

I plan on being there Friday and Saturday so may I suggest 1.00pm at the cafe inside the pavilion on each of those days. If you plan to be there would you let me know so I can watch out for you. Perhaps a meeting point might be the end of the counter nearest the seating?

Looking forward to seeing you there.

No-Mast-Eh, I seem to remember you on PMM forum, when several members got Clipper 40s about the same time. Do you remember Blannie, (Paul Blannigan, an airline pilot who got a new Clipper 40 about same time as you.) he also lived in Hong Kong. Any idea what happened to him...? I seem to remember he was going to sell her.

Sorry, prior commitments puts me out for Friday & Saturday, I'm off to the show today to have a squizz.

If anyone is there I will be easy to spot, I'm the bloke standing in front of the big boats looking at the price tag shaking his head.

Sorry we won't be able to catch up Andy but probably you would recognize all of us standing in front of boats shaking our heads at the price but perhaps with a lustful look in our eyes:-)

Hi Robert .
I will not be able to make Saturday but John from eagle 419 will so perhaps you might meet up.
Andy G Roger Paul and I met yesterday which was fun to put names to faces and we had a good hour together.
We agreed there seemed to be a larger number on a Friday than we had seen for a while. Hope you enjoy .

JJ

Yep, great to catch up.I think the Green Line 40'was my pick for the most interesting boat there.Lots of things to like about that boat.

I think I must have made the organisers and exhibitors day, I bought a hose.
