'Windsurfer' Racing at Mounts Bay Sailing Club
For interested parties.
I have taken up a position on the sailing committee at Mounts bay solely to try and establish some ol' fashion course racing and to build club membership.
The primary focus is to use the new Windsurfer LT as well as any of the old style boards that may be lying around.

My aim is to have organised racing each Sunday through the upcoming season which begins on October 6.
At this stage I think we may get anywhere up to 10 boards but I cant be certain, it doesn't help that most of us don't actually have our equipment yet albeit I am led to believe deliveries will take place around the week before the season opening.
In any Case as the club allows anyone to attend for the opening day I though I would extend the invitation through to other boards. I have secured a start for the Windfoilers of which there may be 4/5.
The foilers will start with the foiling moths as they are closer matched to a moth rather than the ol style boards.

In addition I would extend the invitation to anyone who has a race board or formula board as well.
If enough numbers show up we can create different fleets as well.
Note - to sail and race at Mounts you will need to adhere to racing rules and regs- as well as life jackets etc.
you will also need to be a current fianancial member of Windsurfing WA.

There will be no prizes just bragging rights and the ability to recount stories over a beer after the sailing
Mounts bay is situated on the city side of Pelican point.

For sailors interested in joining the club proper I can confirm that the club will waive for this inaugural season
storage fees in the lock up boat sheds. This will be very handy for storing the big boards!
Also I believe the fee for registered racing will be dropped (need to confirm this).
This means membership is super affordable to the point I believe its possibly the cheapest club on the river.
Membership rates Should be live on the club web site.
If you haven't been to mounts bay I would recommend a visit as the view is unmatched by any other club as well.

Any questions fell free to ask or PM
