13 ? ? ?
Most of us think Jessica Watson is too young to take on the solo around the the world challenge… Can a 13 year old do it???
DUTCH child protection agents urged a court today to stop a 13-year-old girl from pursuing her dream of becoming the youngest person ever to sail around the world solo.
You have GOT to be kidding me…

Freak waves spotted from space
The shady phenomenon of freak waves as tall as 10 storey buildings has finally been proved, the European Space Agency (Esa) said on Wednesday.
Sailors often whisper of monster waves when ships sink mysteriously but, until now, no one quite believed them.

Organisers from the host club, Dobroyd RC Lasers, could not have hoped for better weather on this milestone occasion with Sydney turning on two brilliant winter days of summer weather that had competitors discarding the woollens and grabbing for the sunscreen.

Plastic Fantastic
“The Plastic Fantastic Intergalactic Championships on the Gold Coast”
(or “Let’s get more plastic into our oceans!)
Plastics are a modern day miracle and it would be hard to imagine life without them, but this convenience comes at a cost. A huge proportion of plastic waste ends up in our waterways and oceans where it seems to last almost indefinitely. While there are active measures underway to reduce plastic waste and to clean up this man-made flotsam, one small sailing club on the Gold Coast is doing all they can to try and get more plastic into our oceans.

Multi's OUT of 2012 Games
Well it would seem the rumour we Tweeted about at 1:53pm on June 17th were not true…
“The IOC has not saved ISAF Council from the consequences of its unpopular and clearly political Cascais 2007 decision to cut the multihulls from the Olympic program ahead of one of the dinghy classes.”
LSD Gear?
A while ago we were really pimping the LSD stickers with hundreds of them being sent across Australia and around the world.
Just recently we received this photo below from Andrew with his Impluse proudly displaying an LSD sticker.
The question has been asked a few times with readers wondering if we have T-Shirts or other LSD merchandise. At the current time we don’t because all that stuff costs money…
BUT…
If readers did want shirts, then we would get them made and offer them for a small cost.
Should we go ahead and do this??? That’s the question…
We have new stickers with the new logo on stock! Want a few? Contact us with your address details now!
