Melbourne to Geelong (M2G) - 11/09/10
Double Digits.
Magic, Tresor and Vicsail Savoire Faire take us to double digits for the newest section of the iconic ORCV event, the M2G.
This magic shot of Magic is from last year's M2G, where she was in one of the racing divisions. Phil Spry-Bailey has been an absolute stalwart of ORCV events and we thank all of Magic's crew for that.
We'll find out a little bit more about the other two in just a while, but if you're thinking about being part of the Cruising with Spinnakers Division for the M2G on September 11, don't.
As in, don't just think about it - do it!!!!!!
Right then. You may wish to join all the other vessels and not want to have to organise a massive crew or get too busy to have a whole lot of fun. Solution - join the Cruising with Spinnakers Division, even if you have been in the Racing Divisions previously. Pretty Woman was the first to cross over for this particular event and now 2009 Melbourne to Hobart Eastcoaster racer, Biddy Hu II, has shown up on the cruising roster and now Magic, as well. Boats such as Ocean Safari, Vantage, Caledonia and Dream, could well do the same...
If you entered the entire MWS, then you're already automatically entered into this race too, but you do need to complete some more information for this particular race. You can also just enter the M2G race only, if you like, but I guess that means you're giving the game away about your favourite pastime after sailing - partying!!!
There are separate Cruising Divisions (kite and no kite). The M2G Notice of Race is ready for your perusal and the M2G Sailing Instructions are now live too.
Click HERE to go and complete your online entry if you're already doing the MWS.
Click HERE to go and complete your online entry for just the M2G race only and it looks like this, below:
If you' ve got the boat tied up to the quay and think you should give it a run, then do. The M2G is a passgae race and if you do not want to be in with all the racers, even if you normally are, then go in one of the Cruising Divisions. While you're at it, get your clubmates to come along as well. Why? Party. That's why...
