Bribie Island Classic Boat Regatta
                Dear Chuck, 
                  
                  Here are a few photos from the Bribie Island Classic Boat Regatta 
                  (22/23 May 2004). 
                Here is Miles Porteous' Rogue, 
                  loaded with Miles, Amanda, and two kids.

                The remaining pictures are of My 16 year old son 
                  David's  
                  Janette which was launched in "rowing 
                  and outboarding" trim only. 
                
                The delays in getting her completed to sailing 
                  stage are due to the fact that he is working at McDonalds after 
                  school to pay for the boat. He has done a fine job of building 
                  her, and she drew a lot of attention at the regatta. 
                
                The outboard-powered shots show Geoff and my oldest 
                  son, Geoff, and one of me with a tiller extension. The motor 
                  is a Honda 2hp at low power setting.
