Hi Everyone , well 2016 is finally here and the club has been open since the 4th with a two day camp and then on Sunday with the launching of the Juniors .
8.30am Juniors
With brilliant sunshine and winds gently from the e/s/e we had a roll up of 15 experienced and new sailors for this session. With Kyle back driving Sarah Cooper, and Tianna and I coaching and catching kids in boats, it was an opportunity to see how not only the new kids advanced but to also see how the kids from last weeks camp went after two days of learning. I am pleased to say that I was very impressed, and so was Tianna, with people like Ronin, Lewin, and Hallam steering and generally sailing around the reaching course with ease . Well done to everyone !
10.30am Juniors
All we had on the water were Cody, who had helped with the 8.30 class in a Tera, and Casey, Dallas and Pat in the club 420, who have over the Xmas break been practicing in the boat with the plan to occasionally race the 420 and 470 in club racing when they aren't racing Lasers . The team is slowly coming together so much so that we are going to put the spinnaker fittings back on the boat and give them a go at that as well .
Additional Notes
Racing starts back on Sunday the 7th of February for the Summer series with 8 races marked for the Series, dates as follows :
Windsurfing Nationals are taking place on the Australia Day long weekend starting on January 22nd and finishing on the 25th.
Assistant Instructors Course at YQ is on 27th and 28th and costs $55.00 for the two days so its good value , I believe that so far three of our members will be attending so lifts are available .
Pan Pacific Masters Games are also booked starting on November 4th and going to November 13th with the first class of the rank being General Dinghys the Windsurfing and finishing with the multihulls so keep it in your diaries as the last event was a great success and we are hoping this one will be even better .
