look up ^^^^^

yeh mark but is that all registrations all just online,as previous years online regos close early but you still good registra on the day at the beach.

As a progressive windsurfer, where and when would be the best to drive up as a spectator?

If you get to ledge point about 12, you will get to experience a bit of the beach vibe, check out Bjorn having his last sips of cool water delivered to him by his caddy. Parking isn't easy at all so park up in Ledge and walk. Then race starts about 12.30 - 1ish. Quite a spectacle to see all those sails and the pros blasting ahead. If you're last to arrive you may be first out of the car park to get to lancelin before the first sailor arrives, about 25 mins later.

What's with the 12.30 start? Are they trying to get in before it gets properly windy?
Last year they called it early, got everyone by surprise and of course was it was much windier as the arvo progressed.

Make sure you 'remind the organisers' that they need a bus to organise the bus to take the 'interstaters' or 'others without transport' back to Ledge....

Does anyone know the latest time that the race can start?

If the forecasts are to be believed, there will be wind, but not until late.

Is the loc still a windsurfing event ?

Sure is, alway will be.

Just with the addition of us flying toe nails!
