Ladies and Gentleman/Boys and Girls,
It's that time of year again.
season starts on Saturday November 5th with open day at the club, come down from 10am, sign up for the season and try out laser sailing on the pond, jet ski rides followed by windsurf slalom and TTR, first possible start at 12pm. Finish the day up with the bar being open from 4pm.
The open day will be on regardless of the amount of wind, the racing will be wind dependant.
stay tuned for the rest of the slalom dates to follow soon.
I will be there as well, so thats a good reason for people to come down too.
In your 80's lycra?
^^
I might roll up, just to see that ( just for a laugh). But will there be wind.
If the forecast is correct there will be plenty.
Done, you will see me.haven't sailed there for 20 zears. Old & worn out homosapien.still got a bit left in me ??
Looking forward to it. Might see some old heads from way back in the day. P.S. just checked the Bom looks good a building S .Westa.we all be fully lit for the Slalom.
Save starting another thread, I'll post here.

Awesome event and conditions today were a lot more moderate / enjoyable than the last round which was nuking and no fun.
Just one criticism though only 3 rounds is disappointing.
Overheard someone mention it is a long way to come for only 3 rounds.
Some take an eternity to get to the start line which i think is holding up the start of the next race.
14 to 18 knots today - perfect conditions and i really enjoyed the racing.
Thanks everyone, I had a ball. Today I learnt some new ways to crash but I also got to start at the front and keep Ant honest at least for one leg. See ya all at Leeman for more fun.
