Hello Lucas,
There are sometimes second hand masts around, but I do not know who
might have one for sale at the moment. Another option are those
chandlers or others who are agents for Blue Water Marine. In NSW,
you could try Buckland Marine on the Central Coast.

Tim

I last saw 220 in WA 7 or 8 years ago carrying the name 'Blossom'.
Peter Tremlett owned it at the time. He is no longer sailing,
although he is still involved with Safety Bay Yacht Club and with
YAWA.

Hi
I was recently given an old beat up sailing tender which has re-
awoken my interest in sailing. Looking around at current active
classes, it seems the corsair is probably the most appropriate for a
family boat though I don't know how I might be able to afford even a
2nd hand one. That aside, I am interested to find out if there are
any old aquaintances out there.
I used to sail at Oak Flats Club in Lake Illawarra from around 1969
to 1976. First in manly juniours (Tangara 1381) and later with my
father or brother in a Vagabond (pisces 220) which had a distinctive
purple spinaker.
Together we sailed many regattas, CHS titles and NSW state titles,
usually comming in 2nd overall in the state. In those days the Vags
and Corsairs had a close association. Looking at a recent Nationals
writeup, that may still be the case. So maybe there are some old
friends here?
Also I am interested in any news of our old boat number 220.

Ken Webster
Hello everyone,
Just thought I'd let you know about some of the nonsense that gets
sent through email. I know its not sailing related but this group is
based on email so you might like to know. Be careful about the
emails
you read and which ones to take seriously.
This was prompted by an email I received as moderator, as did
probably
the other moderators. It was one of those "offers" to make one rich,
in terms of millions, if you help hide money, and you just have to
give all your contact and personal details. Needless to say, this is
nonsense, and it is dangerous in that if you gave out all these
details, you could be a victim of fraud. Don't believe things that
are too good to be true. Note that non-moderators should not have
got
this message.
On the subject of emails, please be careful of viruses (or virii).
There are many viruses out on the Internet now. The emails of this
group are stripped of all attachments, so they should be safe, but be
careful about any bizare links embedded in emails as well.
I know this is an off topic message, but I thought a friendly warning
might be appropriate.
On a lighter note, happy sailing and happy birthday to Ashley
Chapman.
I hope I can make it to the party.
Regards
Tim

89 and still sailing in the Corsair State Titles
Ashley Chapman the president of the Corsair Class Association of NSW
sailed on Lake Macquarie this Easter. Mannering park yacht Club
hosted the event and we like to congratulate them on the excellent
service they provided. The sailing conditions were certainly not for
a novice sailor but Ashley a veteran on the tiller sailed all 5 races
over the 3 days. Ashley sails the Corsair 16ft sailing dinghy already
for 36 years and is not ready to give it up yet. Ashley celebrates
his 90th birthday this year and his club, Budgewoi Sailing Club, is
holding a huge birthday dinner and party in his honour.
The club hopes that everyone who has known Ashley, sailed with him or
admired his contribution to the community will reserve their place at
his party, to be held on the evening of Saturday, August 2, at the
Lake Munmorah Community Hall at Lake Munmorah. Early booking is
essential, to enable organisers to assess the size of venue that will
be necessary. Please call or email any one of the following to
reserve a place.
Dorothy Hamilton 02 4396 2485, Kylie Cook 02 4390 7454
(kylie.cook.@...), Laurel Garty 02 43 581131
The results of the 36 Corsair State titles are: A Fleet: 1st 390
Sunset skippered by Kevin Cook, 2nd 336 Deciduous skippered by Kathy
Bourke, 3rd 524 Breaking Wind skippered by Roger Stewart.
Cadet Fleet: 1st TS Sirius 777 Pucka Up skippered by Adam Anderson, ,
2nd TS Sirius 733 Bubbels skippered by Margaret Allen, 3rd 951 TS
Condamine 951 Condamine 2 skippered by James Stewart
We like to invite you all for Ashley Chapman 90th Birthday.
Ashley is the President from Budgewoi Sailing Club and we are holding
a party for him on the 2nd August 2003. If you would like to come
please contact Doreen so soon as possible.

Hi Kyla,
We were looking at making it out of steel, then getting it hot dipped. This
would be a fair bit cheaper than aluminium? The main weight would be supported
by a canvas sling.
Thanks, Craig :)

Hey Craig,
I've seen a number of corsair cradles, mostly owned by cadet units.
Unfortunately I don't have measurements, however if no-one manages to
find a design for one I can probably do one up (before my current job
I moonlighted as an engineer, so it shouldn't be difficult). That
way, there will be a copy of a cradle around for future use (I'll send
a copy to the Corsair association as well). Any preference for
construction material?

If you are looking for a rudder box the standard boxes are available
from Blue Water Marine in Melbourne. Jim Buckland (a boat builder on
the NSW Central Coast) of Buckland Marine is a distributor for them
in NSW, I believe.

Hello Kyla,
This Yahoo group is not restricted to or in any way limited to NSW.
It just happens that so far most of the members happen to be members
of the NSW Association. Members of all the Associations as well as
any one else with any involvement or interest in Corsairs at all are
all most welcome.
I am not currently involved with the administration of CCANSW but I
have been a committee member in the past.
Anyway, welcome to NSW, and happy sailing.

PS The Queensland members (and corsair sailors in any other state)
are all most welcome to join this group.
