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 )
