that vid is really cool. many locations i recognised. The last bit where they were sailing back from rotto. I did something like that around the year 2000. Launched from south beach, sailed out and around the US aircraft carrier and landed at leighton beach. Kinda scary at times. ships are really big when you're up close and dodging tug boats in swells. Must admit the wind wasn't all that ideal fir the size kit i had. But the scariest was when a fat sea lion popped up beside me with i was grovelling.

Good times to reflect over a beer

I'm always up for inspirational vids. Thanks

I think the crystal clear stuff at the beginning is Esperance - white sand, turquoise water and kangaroos. Chopper shot Gnarloo? Shot before the chopper shot is Woodman's Point. Carpark at 8.50 is Margs.

AWESOME video, great job Col. Bring on summer.

Yeah definitely a feel good movie Stuthepirate, Yeeew!!! and obviously a lot of Inspiration/perspiration/time/passion and expense gone into making it. If you watch the original and not that Pirated YouTube one posted (no pun intented ) I'd expect quality should be better and you may feel even better for it on the inside.

Such movies get one inspired/stoked and out there, maybe even in the mood to buy some new or old gear and keep the industry alive at least, or introduce new folks into our sport we all enjoy together whether it be on the water or watching having beer from the car park.
