Part 1
Welcome to ‘The Southerly Buster’, an all new Totally Immersed TV adventure at one of the most iconic regattas of the Australian Championship Tour: The Victorian State Championships! Jimmy & Paddy are first on the scene and are greeted by the locals: Nomes, Timmy & Rowdy; who have sure the scene is set for a glorious weekend of Cowboy Sailing. As the New South Welsh Sailors slowly arrive the locals begin to give them a tour of the town, and just some of the activities that lay before them…
Part 2
G’day folks and what at way to kick start the first day of the Victorian Hobie Cat Sailing Championships. The local legend Rowdy is on the helm for Totally Immersed TV, taking you behind the scenes for all the action off the water. Meet the likes of Nigel & Abi, along with Tim & Elsa and the whole Chiu clan. But, be warned, as a night of anti-trivia will be one you will not want to miss!
Part 3
Taking over the reigns for Totally Immersed TV, Emily Chiu and Abi Morgan are on the scene awaiting the arrival of the Victorian Hobie Sailing fraternity. As the Emily & Abi begin to question the dietary choices made by the sailors the night before, all eyes are on Rowdy Junior who’s already in neoprene before the NSW sailors are even out of bed. However, all eyes are turned towards the contraption Rowdy has erected on the beach, for the infamous inception of ‘Hobie Ninja Warrior’ into the Victorian Hobie State Championships.
Part 4
It’s the final day of the southerly buster, and the breeze is all but gone. Left over wind chop and a light on-shore breeze means it’ll be a bumpy ride in the morning. Relive all the action on the water in The Southerly Buster: Part 4, and enjoy the celebration and foolery that our mate, Mads, brings to the preso. All we can say, be seeing you soon…
