good speed pepe47 seems like a good session for the people that headed out

Well done Pepe, bet that feels good!

Don't hold you breath guys, Crasher's gps files seem to be empty both card and internal logger.

May be Elmo can find something in there, but blowed if I can.

Well done Pepe, congrats on all the PB's mate

Nice speeds Hardie, I'd love to do a Nm like that

Wwwwwwwwwhhhhhhhhooooooooo pepe47!!!!!!!! Great work on the PB's. Sorry i couldn't contribute today guys. I have been baby sitting one of my directors on his SW visit.

Crasher i feel your pain.

top effort MM

Thanks guys, did'nt even taste the first beer

Well done Pepe, bet that feels good!

Don't hold you breath guys, Crasher's gps files seem to be empty both card and internal logger.

May be Elmo can find something in there, but blowed if I can.

Maybe someone needs to have a go at configuring the GT-11 correctly and formatting the SD card.

any SRM out today

Yep I saw Claude and 25 out there today, 25 had a 38 or something... 

What's the precedent for posting distance and display speed direct from GT-11??  Is there a deduction?

Pepe, maaaate well done, you must be stoked right now.

Crasher, feel for you, with a day like today and the GPS failed to fire

Hardie, so feel better now, obviously the client didn't stay too long. Me, I got stuck until to 4.30 and 45 min drive to get going

Hardie, if a couple of you viewed what was on his dial, then cant see why you wouldn't allow to post times. Just my opinion

Precedent was set the day my garmin failed. If you dont have the data you, you dont have the data

Just got to cop it on the chin Crasher. I know your pain.

TOP JOB PAUL , VERY HAPPY FOR YOU  WELL DONE BODY!!

JOE, great numbers mate, I wish I was there with you , NIIIICE

 Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr I want to sail, I can waiiiiiit

"build for speed" Sam...

Build for speed...

So what did the crash man have on the dial?

Was the log switch setting set 'on' or 'on-fix'?

I know, I know, he's not blonde!!

Mike seems to think he may have given his Gt a virus somehow from all the porn he's been making

I can feel the need, the need for speeeeeeeeeeeeed

Yes Chris, "Build for Speed"

What about Elmo !! Where are your numbers budy??

Pete, he had a 36+.

I went thru the set up before he went out as the same thing has happened previously, I couldn't see anything wrong.

I've just tried my card in his unit and managed to get a dribble of data out of the internal logger, but no distance has been travelled and it only goes for a few minutes. I suspect it's from when I've had it on in here.

Also with the dribble of data was an 800kb byte file called "cactus10", and my card has been split in 2, now when I connect the card reader I get two cards! One of them much larger than the other, but they both have the same data on.

I've reformated it but there's still 2 cards coming up when I connect it.

Think I may need some help with this card, let alone crashers unit!

Can't find any data on cactus10, I'm in the middle of a virus scan on this computer now just in case.

Look at those pee bee's PEPE !! Well done

 Oh thats sounds painful. Lets see the data

oh well.  was a little out of condition,but had a good sail with the crew. The only pain I feel is in me mind. Always more days to come.If I stayed out could of hit a few pb's. Got to take my hat off to you decrep. sailing all day with big holes in ur hands.Atleast I got some wind. If my new gear is'nt hear when i get back. Me going to to go a bit silly.Walkabout time

Yes huge respect to Decrep, goes out with 8 week holiday hands, sails most of the day, I rock down there at 4pm he shows me what ledft of his hands it ain't pretty, his words "I don't think I'll last much longer"

Go back to the car start rigging the old bugger has dissapeared again only to be spotted chardging back down the run

Harder than me

Good PB's pepe. Top effort guys. Decrepit, when I went on Holiday to Mauritius band aids superglued on the hands got me through the blisters. Hardie and Elmo toe to toe on speed as ever.

nice 1 gents but i cant see decrepts scores?? was your card corrupted in crashers machine?

Woahh. Decrepit. No wonder your hands are sore. Nice come back after the holiday. I think you are going to pay for those numbers!

Yes a brilliant effort, look at the strength of the numbers across all categories, puts us buggers 15 to 30 years younger than him to shame

OK guys here's the damage, they're looking a bit better this morning.

Not sure about the super glued band aids though, anybody else tried this?

Nice work guys. I had to ride home against that wind. Was a touch envious.

Superglue works fine for holding cuts together. So would be fine for bandaid holding.

Decrep, have a look at this thread. Not making it up, honest.

Yowzers Decrep, remember that magical first day I had outside your place?  Same thing, soft travel hands + many hours windsurfing = payment.

I found some windsurfing gloves, in combination with lots of band aids and tape, pouring mercurochrome on it every night made it heal up in a couple of weeks.

Respect for your distance anyway, that's one big session!

Up date on crashers gps.

I'm testing by jogging round the park, (min speed set to 3kn)

Tried it without memory card installed, still nothing in data logger.

Updated frimware to latest version, with no card in, data logger works, can read with navilink2 and will download to my memory card.

Seems to download to Crashers card but windows reports an unopenable corrupted card, reformated card and tried again with same result.

Then tried my card in there and jogged again, worked fine.

Not sure about this "cactus10" thing, don't know where it could have come from.

I used the card in my camera while away, and reformated it last week, it's a bit of a mystery.

But the firmware in Crashers unit was bad and so is his memory card.

Hopefully it's be OK now.

isnt cactus another term for...you know..cactus? farkked,stuffed,buggered??

Snides, you been to same school as me

some cards need 3.3V. The Navi doesnt go that high. They will do funny things if you try. I had this problem with one of the old SD cards I had from my camera. Moral of the story is, some cards work, some dont.

A great effort from Mandura Mob, but I really take off my hat to Decrepit.....from Herb and Lyn

Thanks Herby, I'm paying for it today but!

GREAT NUMBERS TEAM

Just back from the chemist, they sold me 2 products,

1 "Cutinova", a soft plasticy sheet with an adhesive side, that is cut bigger than the wound and stuck over it. this provides the correct enviroment for the wound to heal.

2 Fixomull a waterproof tape that goes over the top, just put it on and it's starting to sting, must be doing some good!

Thanks Nebs.

Hardie wins the contribution stakes this month with 5. Elmo has 3, I have 2, and Sam and Matt have 1 each.

For once the Bendy man doesn't appear.

Thanks Matt for backing my alpha. And hardie for getting 70km.

30 km less than Crasher, but only made our score 15km less than if Crasher's data was usable.

Just had to see what happened last month when I was away. and Yes Bender is there with 6!

Hardie has 3, Man of, Elmo and Evets 1 each

Mentioned in despatches!

Thanks Decrepit.

cant keep the bender down

[Edit} I have removed my personal opinion regarding contributions to save upsetting others and agrevating myself carry on one and all

I disagree Elmo, I get a real buzz when I've made a contribution, and other people seem to apreciate being acknowledged for there's.

It's certainly not to take away anything from the efforts of non contributors, every body out sailing with you is a help, and the more results to choose from the better.

Any body else feel the same way as Elmo???

I reckon it's bloody great when you can make some sort of contribution, and let me tell you that in SRM it's a very rare thing indeed, for me at least!

I feel the same way that Elmo

I work away means I cannot sail, and when I am here if there is no wind what can I do?

Where this bull.... come from?

Now if you are here and you don't contribute thats a different story!

I just get a huge buzzzz from going fast. I also get a good feeling out of helping with the team score. Then when your gps fails, still know i had a good day then celebrate with a few cold ones.I do get the guilts when i dont go sailing when i could have.I also work away,this tends to make me more keen to hit the water.Just don't like reading those scores on the windy days that i'm away

Decrep, there's just so many differences of opinion on everything, and most have at least some validity.  I try not to get involved in the opinion game, I've let go of my need to be right or have everyone agree with me, I feel Ok with my opinions, whatever they are, and however strongly people disagree with me.

When I was a member of the mob, I was overjoyed if I could contribute half a distance score to the team for the month!  You guys have such good sailors in there, no-one should feel bad if they don't contribute -- it's more a reflection of how strong the team is, rather than a reflection of sailing ability or commitment.  You guys ROCK!!

Hardie, I wish I could let go my need to be right 

Nebbs, The couch is available

Elmo, the last thing in the world I want to do is cause you any agro, it's not a matter of who's right or wrong, I rarely think in those terms, it's what makes people happy, and feel good. If you feel comfortable with me continuing to post the contributors list I'll do so, but if you aren't comfortable I'll stop.
