Lot's of work, and lot's of patience from the Event team, officials and participants from all over NSW and Queensland. Unfortunately cannot control the weather, but look forward to the Finals in three weeks.

💨 Well what a wild weekend it has been!

Unfortunately we have had to make the tough call to abandon this weekend's racing, however as a result all teams have qualified for the SCL Asia Pacific Final in a few weeks time.

STAY TUNED for an exciting announcement about our final on Tuesday, which is going to be a game changer for 'rock-up-and-race' stadium sailing in Australia.

We wish all competitors safe travels home in what is an unprecedented weather cycle here in New South Wales.
