Applecross Cup Series - Finals 7 & 8 September 2019
And then the Seabreeze came in - Day 1. A typical lazy early spring day with a cold morning and little chance of a decent breeze on offer until after lunch. However, the PRO (Les Swinton) had other ideas and had the troops out on the water with the first smell of a southerly. Around 1130hrs, both fleets were out …

YOU CAN ALSO GET YOUR KIDS INVOLVED AT THE SHOW WITH THE FREE TACKERS SAILING PROGRAM!

Kids will love getting out on and sailing a boat all on their own in Elizabeth Quay.

Thanks to Australian Sailing, South of Perth Yacht Club, Royal Perth Yacht Club, and Royal Freshwater Bay Yacht Club, the popular “Tackers Sailing Program” will run all weekend at the Club Marine Perth International Boat Show. “Tackers Sailing” is an introductory, fun, games-based sailing program designed for kids aged 7 to 12, delivered at recognised Tackers Clubs.
Kids don’t need to have any sailing experience and they don’t have to be a member of a club to participate.

All the equipment, including the boats, is provided. All they need to do is register on the day, grab a life-jacket, take some instruction and then they’re off! It’s completely safe, with a special course allocated for the Tackers boats and managed by a team of qualified instructors. Most importantly, kids will feel the thrill of sailing all by themselves on the beautiful Swan River!
For more information on the Tackers Sailing Program, visit www.discoversailing.org.au times and map with the location of the Sailing Activity is available on the boat show website.
The Tackers sailing program will be run all weekend at the boat show.

Flying Fifteen Report 10 September 2019

The final races of the Schweppes Applecross Cup were sailed under warm clear skies with light breezes from most directions – a typical Perth spring day. In contrast, the cold, overcast, windy weather experienced by our members competing in the World Championships is more akin to an Irish winter than summer! Don’t ever complain about where we live and sail. …
