John B:
I've no problems excusing ignorance at all, especially my own.
Of course, some, including myself, would say I have no choice in the matter.
To answer both yourself and George Pazin;
St Andrews Beach will have two courses, Gunnamatta and Fingal, plus a composite available to members several times of the year.
The Gunnamatta will be for members and guests only.
The Fingal will be for members and guests, apartment owners (about 120), resort guests (a really neat, small, boutique eco resort/health retreat of 40-odd rooms) and corporate days.
You become a member by purchasing a share and hoping the committee think you're a good bloke, which in my case, of course, was a done deal.
The Gunnamatta course opens for limited play in late December (Not sure what they mean by limited), with the 'proper' opening around Easter.
The Fingal course is scheduled to be completed around Christmas 2006.
As I journeyed OS and was expecting to be away until after the opening, they took me around before I left. All I've seen in full glory were 1-11, which are incredible, especially 6-11.
Someone else can perhaps fill anyone interested in on the remaining holes, as I've seen only photographs. 14 and 15, at least, look to be as least as incredible.
