| Northern Rivers Cruise 2005 |
We knew it was going to be windy ........ but not THAT windy! At 1000 hours three boats huddled together on the north side of the Potter bridges for comfort while their crews made the (easy) decision to retreat to calmer waters.

TMOR 05 Update
What a great weekend, a big thanks to our sponsors who helped us to provide live entertainment both Saturday and Sunday evenings
- (Saturday night, Lindon-Parris)
- (Sunday night, Purr-Jag).
The Committee appeared to have over-ordered wind on Saturday, and a little under-ordered on Sunday! We will try to get that order right for next year!!

What a difference a year makes; last year, cold, wet and windless and this year, sunny, warm and with a good afternoon breeze. We even had carpets laid to greet the competitors! No, we weren’t expecting royalty; we were just covering up the mud! Nil desperandum – Lesley’s lawn is beginning to take shape!
