Another great weekend's racing, this time at Huskisson. Light winds on the Saturday (mercifully not that hot at Husky!) saw 3 races completed and then a building southerly on the Sunday enabled 4 races to be run. Five different race winners highlighted the closeness of the competition, but it was the consistent Lea Sitja who took the weekend followed closely followed by a fast finishing James Grunfelder and returning former gun Cam Harrison.
A big thanks to Craig Ferris, Adam Craven and Brett Morris for the organising the event. It was fun sailing with the formula crew again.

Series results to date (note that round 6 cannot be dropped);

Was great to sail with the Raceboard crew again. Many thanks & good one you Glen Morrell. Is always a pleasure working with you. Looking forward to working in with the Raceboard crew next year. Good luck with you final events this season, as unfortunately that's it for us on the Formula front. Back to some club racing and a bit of GPS fun.

Round 7 of the NSW Raceboard Series is on this Sunday 5 of March at Woollahra Sailing Club.

The club is at 2 Vickery Avenue in Rose Bay NSW, just off New South Head Road. Parking can be a little walk away so you will probably have to drop off your gear and park. Trailers can be pushed on to the park around the club.

The briefing is usually around 12:15 with 3 races back to back from 1pm. Sign on at the club office.

See you there

Thanks for organizing it Glenn. I hope to be there.

If the weather is overcast and a bit of rain then usually that keeps the pleasure craft away which is a good thing i reckon

Looking forward to Sundays racing - a bit out of practice - a little aprehensive - 6.8m may suffice. Someone needs to ask BrettM to stick to this thread and not confuse by separating the info.

Hope it went well ladies & gents. Looking forward to seeing the results.

It went really well considering the difficult conditions! very gusty and shifty! everyone is sailing well. I think James G won three and Alex from new Cal and Lea won one each. 5 races back to back!
Brett Morris got a second place in Heat 1 and considering that was his first RB race I thought that was good.
John Doolan sailed really well with a storm sail.

Hey Guys, there will be a bit of a delay with the results - trying to decipher the result sheet is a bit difficult....!

Where are the race photos viewable from last Sunday?

Which FB page?

The final round of the 2016/17 NSW Raceboard Series is being run at St George Sailing Club this Saturday, 18th March.
We are fortunate to have former world raceboard Champion Max Wojcek with us on Saturday and he will be running an "Advanced Raceboarding" clinic from 11:00am at the club. A great way to pick up some tips to improve your performance, so be ready to get onto the water by 11am.

The first possible start for racing will be at 13:45, with briefing at 12:30 and registration from 12:00. The club will run 3 races for us.

As this is the series final round, presentation will occur in the club after racing (and after I enter the race results!). The club is also holding a BBQ after racing.

Looking forward to seeing you there
