Hi fatpaddler
Congrats on your new boat "Missy" lovely to see these great little boats passed on.
Like Mark from BB we try and avoid crowded public holiday ramps but realise its the only free time many have with work and kids etc
As old retired types we have no such restraints (except financial ones!) so going up to the Myall lakes later on in April for a few days sailing - our favourite spot.
As fellow locals we hope to meet you out on the water soon.
Enjoy your Easter break and your boat.

It's raining in Sydney too. Bought the girls some decent spray jackets yesterday... the plan is to head out in the rain and do Pittwater or thereabouts tomorrow. At least the rain will thin out the boat-ramp traffic. :lol:

Just back from 3 glorious days on the Myalls. Sunny and warm, nice breezes - had a great sail from Tamboi up to Carters late on Saturday in a 10kt NNE'er, and not a lot of boats for a holiday weekend. Great down wind dawdle under jib only across the Broadwater today. One of the better weekends this season.
And the traffic ok coming home
