Forecast is looking Big for this Sunday .. So We are running a one hour event at Wynnum . Basic concept is start from beach and do as many laps around course as you can in an hour. You can rest if you want as inside mark is near beach . We will have divisions for opens sailors and free ride

Sounds great. Hope my ankle is better by then.

Baysiders bring your membership money !

I forgot to mention there will be a lucky draw as well :) , everyone is welcome , membership can be offered on day (Need insurance cover)
You do not have to have gps to enter event .

No I'm not handling the money but I'm sure the Honourable Treasurer will be there.

This is a rough idea on format . We will need sailors to have sail numbers so we can count of the laps. The inside mark will be close to beach so if you need a rest or want to change gear coming in will not be an issue.

THE COURSE
Two marks set approximately 1 Nautical mile apart. Your sail number will be recorded as you complete each lap. At one hour a sound signal and flag will be raised to indicate end of time, you must complete the lap that you are on. If you are sailing away from beach you must sail to outside mark and complete the lap.

There will be lucky draw after the event . Forecast is looking good at this stage :)

Where do I get sail numbers from

AUS XXX numbers are allocated by Windsurfing Australia though application to the QLD AWA Rep Scott Farley. Refer the following website:

www.windsurfing.org/sailnumber_staterules.htm

OR you can make up your own personalised number - eg DWBH

Both AUS XXX numbers once allocated and personalised numbers can be printed by Digital Ink www.digitalink.net.au/

Is this only open to Bayside members, or members of other clubs as well?

I joined Windwanderers earlier in the year.

Cheers, Brad.

Hi Brad

Event is open to all members of clubs affiliated to awa, so in short yes.

We need all sailors to be covered by insurance its a bit of a pain but just the way it is knowdays

So just to be clear:

The EVENT fee on the day is $15.

Anyone can enter this event but need to be a member of a club affiliated with AWA for insurance purposes.

If you are not a member of a club you can join Bayside Sailboard Club on the day ($40 if rejoining and $70 for new members).

I will bring along some membership forms.

Any restrictions on gear that can be used

Some of the Sandstone Pt 'improvers' keen to come down and support Morgan.

Go Team DWBH

Cheers Jeff

HI

Your water ski bouyancy will be fine

Are there buoyancy vests available for loan? My impact vest is 'not an approved flotation device'....

mate just buy some contact and cut out numbers or use black tape to make a number or letters
