Plans are under way up here to bring the cup back to where it belongs! (Hopefully) Good to see some interest from our Kiwi racers and we should welcome them in... after all, they are almost another State of Australia! (as long as the good local Kiwi's race for us). How is the scoring being done this year? Some of the options have merits. If you didn't make a previous SOO, make the effort. The NSW guys do a great job and it is a wonderful venue to blokart at.
Last year we had about 15k max. The year before we had variable from zero to about 25k. so can be anyones guess as to what is on the cards for this year,who cares anyway as it is always a good time had by all.Thats a good thing about this sport.If you can't sail,socialise and tell lies.
There is a cold front moving onto the south west of WA at 35 knots which seems to be sucking the guts out of the high. This probably means the best place for landsailing over the next couple of days would be Lake Lefroy.
By Wednesday/Thursday when the front has traversed the Bight there will be a very steep pressure gradient over Bass Strait.
Arjay alert!!! Two and three metre sails to Sandy Point. You might set a new speed record.
