WEll done "Map of's" or More politely Tassie Speed Seekers!! Any Team that wins the GTC overall has earnt it and deserves the glory and name on that Trophy, its truly a grueling 12 months of competition!! There's always unlucky teams, particularly when the wind doesnt co-operate during the year, but there's no LUCK in winning!!!!!!!!!!!

Well done guys. I don't know how you do it in such a cold weather. If it's me, I would be sitting next to a heater watching windsurfing movies..... and dreaming.

Thanks guys, was a good year for wind down here in TAS, with lots of keen sailors willing to brave the cold to make the most of it. .

Congratulations Tassie Speed Seekers!

I observe that it must help to have a few keen young sailors on the team to spur the 'experienced' guys along and drag them out in the cold and on road trips!.
Good for you guys! That's what it takes.

And also congratulations to the Moreton Bay Mob for a healthy 2nd place over those fast finishing WA guys.

Bring on 2014.

Cheers

Thanks everyone for comments (not that I did much other than make up the numbers) but I did notice as a team you don't even have to win a month you just have to be consistent.to win the year overall.
Looking forward to another year of blasting around
Happy sailing

Thanks everyone! It surely is a great thing to be part of the Tassie team, the young(under 21 apparently), the old(Perks) and those of us in the middle(not Dave) thrive off the energy and passion of each other. 2014 looks to be another great year for the team with a number of PB's today and the Tassie 2second record blown to bits. Izaak, Cookie and Perks all smashed the previous record with Perks adding about 2knots to the old score and coming out on top with a little bit of Perks magic, this makes him the most marked man in Tassie and will no doubt be 'taken out' in a dark alley one quiet night before the next big blow

Sorry for not doing sooner. Congrats once again and some incredible category speeds across the year (especially the hour and Nm...and oh the Alpha as well)

Thank you everyone. It's great to be part of such an enthusiastic team, they're so enthusiastic it's really difficult to become a contributor in your own team.By the way it ain't that cold down here this time of the year, I've actually gone down to my 3.2 wetty and I have to fall in a lot to cool down.
