38 Days to Go!!!!

Our Executive Committee met again this morning at the Port Stephens Yacht Club.  We are moving steadily down the track with our planning and most things seem to be under control.   Our host families all met here a couple of nights ago and are all looking forward to looking after our overseas visitors.

The latest programme is now on the site and we only anticipate minor alterations from now on.

We may have a problem obtaining six Etchells Class yachts but we feel that, if necessary, we can overcome this by having a 7th Hood Class yacht.  If this happens the crew who would have been sailing the missing Etchells, will sail the 7th Hood in the Hood fleet.    If they beat their countries “official” Hood, their score will count.    If they don’t, their result will be discarded..   This will all be spelt out in the sailing instructions when they are issued closer to the date.

There were a couple of mistakes in the history page but they have been corrected, so, if we had your year wrong, it should be OK now!!
