ORCV Melbourne Winter Series (MWS)

Examining Brass for R5 (Passage Race).

"Still a go", is how the The Brass put it.

Certainly there will be a review later in the day and then the usual postings here and SMSs to Skippers, if there are any aspects that need to be clarified.

Thank you to David Judge and Tony Dawson from Hoobo's for ensuring Steb had a ride and we, therefore, had imagery.
The Colts (Sydney 38s) are having their own fight within the battle - many thanks to Ullman Sails for providing the prize.
