All I can say is that the Canadian beer and beaver must be pretty damn good to keep you boys away from sailing......

don't rush them Paul :p
The beaver left years ago (boredom) their beer ran out ages ago (they brew as fast as they do their challenges ) :)

That's right, Theo.
Our brews are "aged to perfection", just like our skippers.

How many do you want to sail with? Here is what I have received from the other beavers;
conch - out
CANKnot - out
Tornado - out from Jun 17 - Jun 27
CANuck - out this Saturday and every Tuesday and Friday

I'm available pretty much any time within reason (other then work hours). I think it would be best to do it during the night for us and daytime for you on a weekend.

Any suggestions?

That doesn't look too healthy Tony....

Agreed, your evenings, our weekend lunchtimes is the best.

Given that it's only you and Jake that can race next weekend (Sat night/Sunday noonish), I guess we'll have to do 2 on 2. 3 on 3 is much more fun but looks impossible.

Let's aim for then. I'll see who's available from Aus Green.

Cheers,

Paul

Paul,
I was just informed that Tornado can be there Saturday night June 17th of next week. Can you guys be there to meet us? What time would be good for you?

Most of Aus Green are on AEST, (one of us is -1 hr). AEST is +13 hrs from Nova Scotia so....

9pm Sat night = 10am Sunday for us.

This OK?

We are all ready to go at that time but we request to go 1 hour earlier as there is a BIG hockey game that starts at that time. Is this ok with you guys?

I don't have the numbers for that time this Sunday Tony, so why don't we postpone for 2 weeks.
