Doesn't an Open class mean it's 'open' to all age groups not just 18-34?

Hi Buzzy

We are using GPSTC divisions for this event and the Open division is 18-34. You will be able to see all competitor results on the event dashboard of KA72 to compare your results.

If you are really keen to sail in the open division please email secretary@windwanderers.org.au

The public results table for the event is at www.ka72.com/Competitions/ResultsPage/GroupId/48

Until 1 November it is showing the results from LAST November.

Note there are a couple of names missing as some people who are in the competition this year didn't actually record any tracks last November.

Is being a registered AWA member with a number enough to participate?

This is a reminder that Tuesday the 31st of October is the last day you can enter the NATIONAL HOUR OF SPEED. At the moment we have 40 entries from all around the country including women and juniors hopefully we can reach 50 plus.
It is not too late to join the fun - entries close midnight tomorrow night.

A lot of discipline involved in this race.
The discipline is........controlling ones self to work and not sailing non-stop each day to get good 1 hrs. I dunno, work just always gets in the way

Go for a sail after work. You only live down the road from Dorans and the pond, surely there must be a few times you can get out there for a quick blast with longer day light hours..... JUST DO IT.....
