What a week! I wasn’t back in the office for long before I found myself at Sail Sydney supporting the sailors. Making sure those we sponsor have stickers on their boats and catching up more importantly with the Moth Sailors to check where we are at leading up to the Worlds!
It was great to see Sail Sydney back on the Calendar. The Finn Fleet in particular have been big supporters of DeckHardware and in particular Liros Rope. Big thanks to them for being so friendly too!
Yesterday I manned the car park for a few hours to make sure everyone behaved and parked in the appropriate sections while trying to get people to park a certain way to optimize the space! What a mission. Thanks to those who stopped to chat and worked with us to make it happen.
Today I have spent the day working on the Sydney Sailboat Expo. While busy working away I got more than a little distracted by yet another crazy storm. This week has been all about storms here in Sydney. I can only imagine the stress it added to the PRO and RO’s at Sail Sydney! As I type this yet another one is about to come through… Amazing clouds all week as each storm has crossed over Sydney. Today was different though as the Northern Beaches got hit with some serious Hail! My Facebook feed is filled with Hail Shots and Video. Just crazy weather. Sydney is known for it’s afternoon Summer Storms but it isn’t normally every day and more than one!
Let’s Hope the weather plays nice for the Big Boat Challenge on Tuesday and the Extreme Sailing Series later in the week. I can not wait to get out there and cheer on some friends of mine who are sailing. #AussieSailorsRock
