Darwin & IRB National's.

We had 4 days at the IRB (Inflatable Rescue Boat’s) Nationals, the racing was superb and so fast, the level and speed was amazing. Steve was Official in boat, he also got to do  RWC and driver to take the tea bags out. I was an excellent spectator and photographer. The four days went so quick, the Northern Territories did an excellent job! The after party was brilliant, so well organised, It was great to catch up with Rick, Alan, Simon and other’s from SA. It was great to see the Gove Club and Mindel Beach competing in race’s they had never done before. Well done to all the clubs involved. The teams had the blessing of The Buddhist Monks, they also had welcome to the Land from the Aboriginals & good luck from the Chinese.

                                                                            And they are off!!!

                                                       Steve all relaxed before the start of competition.

                                            Lot's of activity on the water.

Since the IRB’S we have been to the Darwin Museum, which was excellent. We also caught up with Jeff & Jordi, whom we worked with at Thevenard Island, it was great to see them on their travel’s again and enjoying themselves.
