Guys,

Entries for the Whalebone race this weekend have been extremely poor.

Unfortunately if we don't get more entries it will have to be cancelled.

Get your entries in now or it might not happen. If the event does not go ahead all entry fees will be refunded.

At this stage conditions are looking best for Sunday, but will be confirmed on Friday.

There is $1000 Prize money for the 12'6 class. It costs $55 to enter and you get a T-shirt, Wax, Sunblock and a heap of other goodies in your show bag. There will be a Starboard SUP given away at the presentations at the Cott plus surf boards etc.

You do need to get your entries in before the event. Entry forms are available here http://www.whaleboneclassic.com.au/

A few guys have asked about a SUP surf division, but unfortunately, there is just not enough time to fit another surf division in the event.

Hopefully see you at Cott on the weekend.

Thanks,

Ian

would love to come over and catch up with you guys again, but lack of leave and cash spoils the party, if i lived in WA i,d be there with bells on!!!

Just filled out the form and dropping it off at Funs Back Surf tomorrow.

Totally forgot

What time is the SUP race I couldn't see it on the website, I have only got a 10'2" JL Mano surf sup so never going to be competitive but happy to have a go if I can make it.

Working a 12hr shift Saturday and nightshift on Sunday night doesn't make it easy though.

* Just read your post again Ian and it sounds like it is still up in the air regards day and time, so I will probably just enter tomorrow anyway but will only be able to make it if it is on Sunday.
I don't suppose you have a (fast)12'6" SUP i could use do you.

^ Geez Radman another one, you have a serious problem don't you.
Plenty of room at my place just let us know if and when you are coming down.

split the prize money between 12'6 class and 14' and you might get some more entries.sounds like it maybe off find out tonite.

Well that makes three of us that would be there if there was a 14 class and I think Adam would probably be keen as well. I just can't justify $55 for a 3km non down wind race with no possibility of at least getting my money back while the winner of 12'6 gets a pile of $$$.

By no means am I a an expert racer but the enticement of a bit of a prize would help swallow the entrance fee. I know there is the board up for grabs and other door prizes but it isn't the same.
