TF72 - FB Perth 29th April Rockingham run

Post by rritchie71 »

Well, it was a great day, weather turned really ugly and bucketed down for about 20mins, but all ships survived ok, in actual fact remarkably well. After that plenty of sailing and Wim Blom bought along his 30year (yes built in 1982) plank on frame Smit Rotterdam, a very nice model indeed.

As well as Andrew's new Indian Frigate and Hillary's refitted PT109 back out and about, even if you couldn't see it half the time because of the camouflage scheme.
