Vellamo’s cruise to KI Vellamo left for Kangaroo Island, flying her kite for the very first time down the coast to Port Willunga. Conditions were perfect to anchor in Port Willunga catching up with friends on Breezy snorkelling on the Star of Greece wreck and enjoying a beach barbecue. On the following day we left for Kangaroo Island where we joined fellow CYCSA boats Talay, Rapid 2, Sintara, Impulse and Pineapple Poll at Browns Beach. Fresh tuna caught by Paul Hicks provided sashimi and tuna steaks for a combined dinner party in the Browns Beach BBQ shed. Vellamo, Sintara and Talay then relocated to Emu Bay relishing the perfect autumn weather conditions. There was a lot of boat hopping, fishing, beach walking and laughter. Some wing-on-wing sailing between Paul and Peter aboard Talay and Traci and Matt on Vellamo proved that it’s not that easy to take the racer out of the cruiser. Traci Ayris
