Could someone please post a few more details of the "Mariners" so I can check it out. Do they have a web site?

If we're looking at the first weekend of October it will be a real good move to book accommodation NOW as that weekend is also a long weekend (Labour Day) and accommodation is sure to be very hard to come by at that time.
I can make it up for Thursday 3rd to Sunday 6th.

Do we have some consensus as to the run being changed to the first weekend of October?

Nobody has argued against it to date Col, so I'm planning for that to be the run dates. :wink:

Just tried that site Col, kept getting an error message. :(

Also tried using the site's search function, no luck there either.

You may recall a conversation we had at 'The Frisco', Col, if the yacht's operational, we'll be taking her out,
'first dibs' given to those present and participants from the previous RAN Fleet Entry... (which included you...!)

It was considered at the time that it was the only fair way to do it... and why we didn't 'go public' with it... [-(

And I don't know why your url didn't show up as a hyperlink, :dontknow: I just did as you suggested then copied
and pasted the url from their website into my post... :type: I think yours may have failed because you put it in bold...

=; BTW, you've got my number if you want to discuss the yacht options... :thumbright:

I was fortunate enough to be in the middle of that lot in '88, not on Hobart but on Cook which was flagship for the review, and can be seen in the background at 3:07. Brings back some good memories, particularly of Lady Di (she had a magnificent complexion)

The harbour was a sea of ships, boats and all things nautical. A magnificent sight.
