2012 Etchell World Championships

You don't often get the chance to experience a World Championship. The 2012 Etchell World's were held off Sydney Heads and the Aussies didn't disappoint with the top 9 placings taken by Australian crews with Tom King's "Iron Lotus" clinching the title.

Tom King leading John Bertram

Race 2 start......what a sight!

Approaching the mid race turn........

STAAARBOARD!!!!!!

Offshore - Sydney Harbour

On receiving a request for an offshore adventure The Count was happy to oblige.

Our guest was an offshore based Aussie wanting to "rip & tear" with his son...and his future father-in-law along with the groomsmen and a few mates.

Nothing beats leaving land behind.....

Next stop......New Zealand!

Valentines Day 2012 - Queen Mary 2

Two annual events.....Valentines Day...and a visit from the Queen.

Even an overcast day can't dampen the moment.... 

Note the sign over the QM2 signage for that special proposal...

 ....Jess  said  YESS!

....and what a sunrise!

Believe it or not, the shots of the QM2 were just before the sunrise over Sydney Harbour. Note the kayakers on the left side of centre.......work?......there's more to life.....just ask those guys!
