Start Racing - Sooo much Fun!
Everybody on or around the harbour is getting ready for the summer season of 2009. Racing yachts are slowly making their way back from up north, so they’ll be on time for the start of another racing season.
Every weekend more students at Pacific Sailing School try their luck at mastering the spinnaker. Faces lit up when students were asked during the debrief how the spinnaker course went. “Thrilling”, says one. While a female student says that “it is one of the most exciting things I have ever done.” Most of the ‘spinnaker tragics’ are getting ready for the racing weekend in Gosford at the beginning of October, which, once again, promises to be a fantastic event, full of wild racing and even wilder partying.
If you can’t join us in Gosford, don’t worry. There’s plenty more racing on offer this summer. The Twilight Races start on the 7th of October, while the Bluewater Pointscore and the Ocean Pointscore races start respectively on the 25th and 26th of September. So book your spinnaker course now and get into racing!
Guess Who!

And No - it is not Brett Beyer
Clue - In 2007 at Terrigal
Brett Beyer (AUS) was the first winner announced today, successfully defending his 2007 World Championship crown in the Standard Apprentice Master finishing the final day with a win and a second place. “I’m very happy. There wasn’t much wind, maybe 10-12 knots, and the racing was very close as usual,” said Beyer on winning an unsurpassed sixth Apprentice world title.
Beyer finished the nine-race series on 10 points, remarkably finishing only once outside a top two results.
