A great event to close out the season
Weather permitting, the course for the faster 'senior' classes is usually up to and around Lion Island and return to BYRA

currently the Saturday forecast might possibly progress to a moderate to fresh westerly, which could offer fast reaching in the gusts there and back.
BBQ and liquid refreshments, to lubricate camaraderie and exaggerated bragging rights, on the deck afterwards
Hope to see plenty of Windsurfer LT's, Raceboards, Foilers, and Div II longboards
. . . the Sunday forecast might possibly progress to a moderate to fresh WSWest and a bit more to the West across the opening to Broken Bay. But then again, it might only be Light to Moderate, but still a lot of fun.
I AM IN! I'm going to do it on the IQ FOIL or a foiling dinghy. Usually attracts a few raceboards.
It is my homeclub so i have done it a few times now and it was always lots of fun.
I'm in. I'll bring my renovated D2.Actually I checked the forecast, I might changed my mind on the day and go with a foot straps board instead.Forecast is looking strong if correct.
Forecast now about 10-15 knots during racing hours... A few of the Formula Foil crew across Sydney will be joining too.
"Send It"
and bring your GoPro
hold off on entering if you are a foiler will ask Race committee what yardstick we should use.
Apparently the Race officer is happy for us to all agree to go to 70 for sails bigger than 8.0 and 72 for 8.0 and smaller.
having said that. if I'm on smaller than 8 I should be faster

Congratulations to all those competitors able to survive through RAIN, HAIL & SUNSHINE to the finish.
Including the cold temp prior to the start that encouraged most to utilise their warmest wetty,
and brilliant sunshine for about 45min shortly after the start just to remind us why full wetties are referred to as 'steamers'
