I wonder if we could set an inside mark about 30-50m out from the pelican mooring. The wind shadow created by jo-jo's seem so to have worsened and I suggest that it would make for more interesting racing as opposed to having most of the fleet stall around the two buoys that make up the Pelican's mooring. How long is the rope on our pimple buoys? Deep enough for that area? I'm sure I could manage to take it out and set it if the rope length is suitable.

A good turn out this week despite little wind and no racing.
Pizza and coldies were just as good as ever though. Thanks Windforce.
WWA member volunteers needed to run this coming week 23rd Jan (not much involved) or unfortunately there will be no racing.
It would be good to get some others helping out through Feb also.
PM if you can help or info@windsurfingwa.org.au

Racing is on this afternoon 6/2/13.
We anticipate racing will continue for another 4 weeks after today.
More volunteers are needed to officiate (2 per week). This is very low key and social so no stress or sheep stations involved! Please see Stephen afer racing, phone at the shop 9386 1830 or post a reply on this thread. Thanks!

Hopefully next week...

Hoping the fresh easterly will blow all day, so we are going ahead with plans for racing or at least a social sail tonight.
If the wind dies there will still be beer and pizza, so come on down!

Racing will continue until the end of March and possibly into April, depending on wind and volunteers to run the racing.
We currently have volunteers to officiate only up to and including today.

Hi All,

A light seabreeze has come in already so we will be going down to Peli tonight and putting on Pizza and beer with the hope that we get some racing in. I think this will be the last one for the season so all are welcome even if it's just for a catch-up or freesail. An increasing number of sailors are getting back into Formula sailing so feel free to bring your gear down as any equipment can be used.

Thanks to all that helped with this seasons events and we plan to continue next year with an even better format.

Cheers

Stephen
