Winter Series has started

Details

Last Updated: 16 September 2019

Despite the difficulties  the club has experienced with water levels over the last few weeks the Winter series started this weekend (15th September).  

The day attracted 10 boats to the water, on what some may call calm, but for others a pleasant sail on our blue water lake.  The racing schedule followed the normal race format for Sundays, being one pursuit race followed by class starts for Albacore, Laser, Solo and Menagerie.

The first races of the series saw many of the usual racers away allowing for some new faces to show their prominence over the fleet.

Next Sunday 22/9/19 will  be t he same format.
