The NOR’s and Sailing Instructions for the two week-end racing events being sailed from Fremantle Sailing Club in February are now available.
The racing is planned to be on the expected 2021 Worlds race waters so these two week-ends should invaluable practice for 2021.
An entry fee of $50 for each of the two week-ends (i.e. $100 if you do both) is required to cover our operating and volunteer costs as we have only limited Club support to facilitate the two week-ends.
Boats may be set up at FSC from Friday 31 January (possibly earlier by arrangement) and can remain at FSC until Monday 10 February (or later by arrangement).
From early expressions of interest we may have 25 – 30 participants. Using the link on the NOR’s PLEASE REGISTER ASAP as FSC will need time to plan and execute the re-arranging of their hard standing area.

The racing was a lot closer than the AFL Grand Final the previous day with 5 races held in the morning in typical very light Easterly conditions followed, after lunch, by the final 3 races in a much more civilised Westerly. Thank you to the start and mark laying teams for some great work in testing conditions.
Philippa and Dean ( El Toro) from Freshie won the regatta by 1 point from Greg and Lillo ( Spot the difference) while Plonky steered Second Breakffast into third with Russell. It was great to see a couple of newer fleet members participating. Welcome to Mark Walters, Kate Edwards and Natalie Waddell.
