Hi all,
We have had our yacht for 3/12 yrs now but have not lived on her since Sept last year.Have started doing some much needed maintenance and found this site while searching the net for some info.
Hope to get to sea again in the near future so will look here for info and inspiration.

Welcome aboard Mate, I have found the shipmates here to be pretty friendly (and mostly pretty smart ).

Aloha Russ n Shaz,
Welcome aboard! When Wotname was referring to when he said, "and mostly pretty smart." was Gord May.
You'll see a lot of his posts. Disregard mine.
Kind regards,

G'Day Russ and Shaz,
Welcome. Recall doing the first Freo to Carnarvon Yacht Race - was a few years back. Lovely part of the world so hope to hear more from you.
Cheers
John
