Can it incorporate a QLD Techno State Championship as well, plans are to bring a techno team from RQ

If the WODs are coming we'd better warn the Apollonian beverage manager.

Yep I'll be there for the titles this year. Looking forward to the interesting wind conditions that happens that time of year.

State Championship is less than two weeks away.
Looks like we have a nice contingent of Techno Youth sailors coming this year.
Thanks to National Coach Max and RQYS team who have been doing great work in growing the youth participation.
WOD have not made it an official championship but are very welcome to join in.
See you at the lake on the 29th and 30th of April.

Not too late to make your plans to come to this years Raceboard Championships.
The club bar and clubhouse will be open on Saturday night.
There won't be any meals available to purchase but the BBQ will be on for anyone who wants to cook their own.
The Heron Association usually runs their toad races for a bit of entertainment and welcome participation from everyone.

Great to see a strong youth Techno fleet and all the kids having fun at the QLD State Titles. If this is an indication of the future for windsurfing, it is looking bright

Hope to see another great turnout at RQYS Sail Brisbane in July and the other forthcoming regattas.

BIC Techno report from Sailing Australia's Windsurfing Officier, Max Wojcik.

The past weekend saw fantastic racing for all ages at the 2017 Queensland Raceboard and Bic Techno Championship at Lake Cootharaba. The 11-15 knots of wind over the 29th and 30th of April saw fun, and at times challenging racing conditions for all competitors and provided exhilarating and competitive racing for all. For the Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron's Green Fleet sailors, coached by Max Wojcik, this regatta provided a perfect introduction to racing. For most of these youth sailors, many of which learnt to windsurf through the Learn to Windsurf course, and Team Windsurfing run at RQ, this was their very first time racing. After two days of very close racing the results were finally in, with Jake Van Staveren winning the under 15 Techno division, and Hailey Lea coming first in both the overall Techno and 7.8 Raceboard division after performing extremely well in all seven races. Max Irvin also received the award for the youngest competitor at the Regatta after showing great sportsmanship in all his races.
The experience gained by all the youth sailors from this regatta will be extremely beneficial in preparing them for the upcoming Musto QLD Youth Week in July and Techno Nationals. A special thank you must go out to Lake Cootharaba Sailing Club, Tony Matta, the race officials, and everyone behind the scenes for organising such a fantastic and enjoyable regatta and to Max Wojcik for coaching and encouraging these next generation windsurfers.

Full results in post above....Great to see so many kids racing...Congrat's
