This Saturday is the first round of the RPS/WV/ESC Stern Chaser from Elwood Beach. If the winds are light RPS will be bring down some SUP boards for us to windsurf with.

How the this Stern Chaser works; is there is number of one lap races. Where the slower windsurfers start first and head off to round the one mark. With the faster windsurfers leaving last, with everyone coming back in to the finish line at about the same time. The past Stern Chasers have been heaps of fun, when its been windy or in light winds with SUP windsurfers or longboards.

Refer to poster below for timing details. I hope to see you there.

Please Note: The Elwood Sailing Club will be hosting their Xmas BBQ afterwards. If any one would like to join in for about $5 they are more than welcome.

From looking at the poster, you'd think it was a fully caged, full-contact, windsurfing blood sport!

Well, this Sat, we may have to settle for a knockout wind-sup shortcourse race.

Saturday 17 DecemberWindsEast to northeasterly 10 to 15 knots tending north to northeasterly during the morning then becoming northeasterly 15 to 20 knots during the afternoon.
