Is there windsurfing racing, upwind downwind in Melbourne ?
In Sydney we race with the Moths at St. George SC. We all start together, moths, formula, raceboards and wallys. The moths are super fast espiecally in light winds when they get up foiling. on the formula board it can be pretty good fleet racing.

I have come down for the plug and play this Sunday at inverloch. Today I would like to watch or join in with the moths at Black Rock SC. I would only be there for a short time as I want to show the kids Melbourne.
We walked along Chapel Street last night. My youngest now wants to move to Melbourne! My daughter wants to go to London or Paris I told her Melbourne is just as good maybe better. Chapel street was great last night. Not sure where to take them this morning?

Is black rock my best option for racing?
If anybody wanted to check out the Patrik boards or Avanti sails but can't make it on Sunday then contact me otherwise ill will be all set up at inverloch. And at inverloch we have the KA team as well.

Hi Justin,

Windsurfing Victoria runs a course racing series over the summer period. Plus there is always Parkdale Yacht Club with their Sunday racing. Mordy Sailing Club sometimes race Saturdays with a few course boards.

You can get hold of WV at www.wv.org.au and president@wv.org.au

Wrong time of year... we locals call it the doldrums... weeks on end of no wind, with the occasional day. You might be better enjoying the local sights!
