WEDNESDAY RACING

FLEET THREE

Over the last season there were a lot of light weather days, but still most boats finished due to the race officers shortening course at the right time. Competition over the four divisions was close on point scores, thanks to close handicapping. Division 4 had a big increase in numbers thanks to the Couta boats.

For the 2016-17 season there have been more races added to the Wednesday program, with more races available to sail. Courses have been adjusted at some rounding marks.

The added bonus of good racing is the free sausage
sandwich after the race, cooked by the by rostered yacht
crews throughout winter and summer. Always a good
way to resail the race and spin yarns.
Members are invited to race on Wednesdays, no excuses not to enjoy competitive and social racing almost all year round.( 50 weeks of the year)
