First Race Day of 2024

Race 6 of our Summer Season, and our first race day for 2024, is this coming Sunday.

Skippers, we have a new registration system; please register via the calendar event on our website. There are no junior sessions until the 14th of January, but competent juniors are encouraged to race with the regular races.

The briefing is at midday, and the racing is not before 1 pm.

Our summer roster is here. (We need people to put their hands up for roles; please fill in spots you can take.)

Please fill in this form for Sunday if you’d be interested in crewing (no experience necessary). A skipper may get in touch with you. Or come along on the day (the earlier, the better) to see if you can find a ride. Details on what to bring are here. Skippers, your list of the available crew is here.

In other news, club members Matt Andrews, Craig Foley, and prior members Phoebe Reedman and Andy Lamont crewed on Andy’s yacht for the Sydney Hobart race (Matt’s still recovering).

It’s that time of year for many Nationals events; Adam Hurt, Kate Yeomans, Andrew, and Bernie Heerey are racing in the NS14 Nationals, starting tomorrow at SYC Hollywell, with five days of racing! (I believe that Adam Arrawauthra might be racing too) We wish them well.

  • Racing on Sunday

Sailability

If you’re available this Wednesday Morning 0830 – 1230. Sailability on Tweed is short of volunteers. This is an enjoyable experience of “Armchair Sailing”, taking young and older disabled people for a sail and watch the smiles on their faces! Several of our club members already enjoy this experience on Terranora Creek each Wednesday. Rigging starts 8.30 at the container on Dry Dock Road, just west of the M1 bridge. Please phone John Stead on 0400322499 if you can help.

Manly Juniors Championships Series

All juniors are encouraged to sail as skippers or crew in this, the first heat of the Club Championship. This first heat will be a non-spinnaker event. Briefing at 1200. Course and Start will be separate from the senior fleet. Please register using the registration link below

Crew Needed for Next Weekend’s Regatta at Big River

We have around six Corsairs entered for the two-day Bridge to Breakers regatta at Harwood on the 11/12th of November. A number of the boats are looking for crew. Whether you’re experienced or not, you’re welcome to come along and join in for what is always a fun weekend.

Call Craig on 0413 052 898 for more details, or join the Whats App group and put your hand up.

Juniors Holiday Program, Last Winter Race and Summer Calendar

The final day of our winter racing is this coming Sunday! Briefing at Midday. Skippers registration is here.

We have a school holiday program from the 25th to the 27th of September. You can read more about that here.

Our calendar for our summer racing is on the website; you can see that here. The plan for summer is to split championship days between single-handers and crewed boats. With the NS14 state champs coming up, we expect several members to want to participate in local racing first while also racing single-handers.

All memberships for the new season are now due. You can sign up via the Membership page. This includes Juniors.

Finally, Justin Johnson, ex-Corsair Champion, is looking for crew to help him deliver his yacht (Sunfast 3300) from the Gold Coast to Sydney next week. Contact him on 0435 584 280 if you’re interested.
