Winter Sailing at its Best
|
|
The weekend provided lively sailing conditions. On Saturday the sun shone on the Blizzard and One Design Fleets as well as the 12 KISS participants Sailing to Queenscliff. Congratulations to Murray Erwin’s Sun Kiss (Blizzard Fleet), Ian Crisp’s That’s Life (Etchells) and Peter Coleman’s Australia 2.4 (2.4s). The conditions freshened on Sunday but that didn’t stop the stalwarts in the OTB fleets from competing (ILCA/420's and Optis).Thanks to all the volunteers who make all this terrific racing happen.
