Nice one. I started on a OneDesign about 35 years ago I reckon. If I still had one I'd come and race. Will come down and watch the locals.
If anyone from Canberra or northern NSW wants to compete I can lend them a board, mast, boom, etc. They'll have to arrange a sail of their own or borrow one of my beaten up training ones.
Event rocked. 49 entries. Great breeze. Super racing. Top social.
