Hi All Forecast is looking good. So at the moment we are racing, there has been a change of plans on venue……
Race committee feels that Wynnum is just a bit to protected for south easters. So we have approached RQYS at manly and they have kindly allowed us access to their facilities , for those of you that don't know it, the beach at RQYS is a perfect venue in south east winds . On the day you will have to drive into RQYS and go into office and ask for day pass of $15. (that is total cost for day) they will give you key code for gate then drive down to rigging area..
We will send out update tomorrow

That sounds like some great work from behind the scenes to tee up that arrangement. Hope that southerly kicks in, will be an awesome day.

thanks mate, I think the beach there will make a great venue . Ideal for the top sailors as well as rookies and the raised viewing platform is great.

Also our friends at R.Q.Y.S. would love it if people want to stick around afterwards for a few beers and/or some food at the Clubhouse Bar .

Should be a great day!

So just to summarise on the fees:

The cost to get into RQYS on the day is $15.

The above cost covers the race fees so there are NO further fees on the day.

If you are a member of any Windsurfing club affiliated to AWA then you can join in.

If you are NOT a member of a club, you can join Bayside Sailboard Club on the day for $70 ($40 for previous members rejoining) - just ask for me on the day, I will have membership forms with me.

Treasurer
Bayside Sailboard Club.

PS
Joining a club means you have 3rd party cover when sailing.
Insurance is required for racing but also covers you whenever you are just free sailing.

Here is the link for policy details:

Great day, thanks boat crew and all involved. Pretty amazing venue and the wind was honking! I need to remember to bring more than 1 board and 1 sail. 7.8m was way overcooked today. Thanks Ray for the lend of a smaller fin...
