Back home in Sydney after an 11 hour drive No doubt it will be blowing a gale today now I've left but I just wanted to say this has to be my most enjoyable trip to the Pit yet. Awesome sailing (anytime you get PB's it's awesome) but most of all the social aspect left me smiling the most. Being able to chat about all things windsurfing with your peers (in real life) is invaluable cause I know I sure as hell don't do it at home with my family!!
I want to particularly thank Matt for yet again organising things and cooking a sensational meal for us all on Friday night. My thanks also to him and Daffy for helping tune my Koncept to the point where it actually looks like it should now.
For all the other guys who made the trip there I thankyou alos because if we didn't all make the effort it wouldn't be what it is.
For all the guys who didn't come, you missed a fantastic time and if you don't go next year then you are missing out on an incredible experience.
I really hope next year to be able to substitute the hire jobbie for a blat on Daffy's own personal machine next year when we head to the Kart track too
See you all next year!!

What Rexy said plus 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Had a ball sailing, chatting and hanging out.
We hope to get a decent contingent of Roaches down next year, this weeks sailing was so much fun and a learning experience which I will improve on next year.
Big thanks to Daffy, Kato, Luca, Dale and especially Matt for a top time.
Seeya next year!!

Pity not to make it down for the finale. Thanks again Mat for the organisation and all who came down for the camaraderie.

Yes, huge thanks for Mat for his generous input of time and energy to once again make this excellent event happen. You're a legend mate! And great to see so many familiar faces participating - although not so many new faces. Numbers were down a bit this year but it was excellent fun and a great relaxing holiday in a magic part of the world.

I'd like to put my name to the thanks list also to everyone in attendance when i was there and also special thanks to Matt for organising everything and the terrific culinary roast lamb and veges he served up on the Fri night. Good to relax chill out and recharge the batteries away from misses and kids and have a few beers with the boys.
Sailed 5 days out of the 7 I was there, demoed a couple of SUPS thanks to Andrew and Larko,caught a few small fish,and between Matt, Kato, and Daffy learnt many answers to the worlds problems as well as valuable knowlege on sailing techniques and varius types of equipment, rigging etc..
Hope to see a few more there next year for a good fun educational time.
