It's all happening in South East Queensland!

Cyclones and oils slicks put a dampener on moth launching plans.

    yep, the boat is all ready to go, just waiting on a weather window.

    picked up grip tape and pool noodles this morning. everything else is ready for first sail.

    Hey Markla,

    still keen to build a Mk II. When do you plan to launch? The slick is a long way north of the Gold Coast! :-)

    Keep meaning to email you.
    Try for tonight.

    I want to revise the weight estimate to give you a good figure.

    Was going to launch it today but there is no wind. Wednesday hopefully.

    Cool, standing by! Maybe you can make it to the Qld states (whenever that might be).

    Rob.
