ORCV Melbourne to Geelong (M2G)

 


Wet. Wet. Wet.


Might not be your kind of music (we don't even know who they were/are, but figuring they may well have been a one-hit-wonder), but anyway, if you're out there, humming a tune may be a good way to keep your mind of your surroundings, which really were, wet, wet, wet!

63 vessels and 459 sailors booked in for the annual run to visit our friends at the Royal Geelong Yacht Club. 60 boats showed up and XLR8 retired with a broken headsail tack fitting, but shed no tears, they're on their way by car for the after sailing activities. Two individual recalls in Division One Racing and also in Cruising, but otherwise all is fine in ORCV Land, especially if you're in a car or pub for lunch!!!!!

Goldfinger is the Line Honours favourite and was well on the way after round ing P3 at about 0945hrs.

 

When the M2G is done, you'll get the results for that race and the entire MWS, right HERE.

Got the woollies right, just not the mighty Hawks...

Celebrating its 41st consecutive running -
the Winter Series was first run in 1972
and is still the same format today!

Be a part of the Bay's hottest racing at the coldest
time of year or just pop out at the end, for
the Bay's favourite bash - the event officially known
just as
Melbourne to Geelong,
but you may have other names for it...

Geelong

In September, the Melbourne to Geelong event 
finishes the Winter Series off and there will be
presentations at RGYC for it.

Of course, by the time Stanley comes around, 
you just know Silly Season proper is upon you...
