Manly Surf Carnival
My last weekend was spent mostly messing around in boats setting up cans and buoys for the Manly Surf Carnival. Its the largest club carnival in the country, with surf clubs travelling from all the Australian States to compete. Clubs from as far away as Perth, and North Queensland. The only other event of its kind that is larger is the national championships.
Its a hard slog, we started at 5am, as the courses have to be laid out by about 6.30 for the rowing boats, and then the other courses for the Iron Man, ski races, swimming and board paddling need to be set up. There was some decent surf too, so it made driving quite fun. The best news of course is that Manly won by a large margin. Something like 200 points ahead of second place with 230 odd. Woop!
