Like always, the emphasis is to have fun. Sailing together in fantastic locations is so enjoyable, so please come along (all levels of sailors, as well as families, are welcome).

Like last year, we will be running a series of training clinics as well. This was very well received last year.

We are still working on all the finer details, so the official poster will be released very soon. We realise people need to book accommodation, so please find the details below.

GPS / SLALOM ROUND 1 - The Forster accommodation is set up with 20% discount at Securalife style. Contact Alyssa Jones ph 026555511.
This is an amazing new caravan park!

STATE SLALOM - Accommodation is set up with 10% discount at the Myall Shores Holiday Park. Contact Robyn - ph 02499 74457 or 1300 769 566. Please mention you are a windsurfer, as we have booked out all remaining water campsites and also all cabins some time ago but cannot keep them on hold forever.

We have lucky door accommodation prizes for both Forster and Myall lakes generously provided to be given away to a lucky windsurfer.

This year the committee has spent a lot of time discussing the implementation of some changes to make the sailing more exciting. Like always, the conditions, location and availability of volunteers dictate what is able to be run. Racing can be arranged with marks and competitors go around this course over the set time period. Basically a massive figure 8 so we are racing each other but in the end, using your GPS (this has already proven to be more fun).

Racing can be a long distance slalom course and the result counts towards the GPS result. Elite and open class. No handicap. Elite can do 30 min or possibly 1 hr. Open 30 min. We all do slalom together.

The cut off period for submitting thru KA72 or via email is before 5 pm the day after racing.

HELP REQUIRED! we still need volunteers for Myall lakes slalom. Even if you are happy to do GPS that's cool, we need people to help score the slalom. We will pay for your camping accommodation. We also need someone to tow Marmong boat up to Forster. We will pay you to do this. We would also like to have a volunteer on the boat if possible.

Lake Macquarie events any helpers would be appreciated.

Committee: Byron Mcilveen, Murray Towndrow, Steve Walsh, Aron Constable
