Cruiser Fleet News November 2018

It was good to see a new cruiser, a Baycruiser 23, finally get onto the water during late October, after some months in the compound while the mast and rigging was being attended to.
We look forward to see it join the racing fleet.

However, the winter series finally came to an untimely end before November when low water levels finally prevented launch and recovery of the fixed keel boats. Only the Hawk 20, with a break-back trailer and swinging centre board, was able to launch and recover at the North Jetty. But, even then the width of the channel was too narrow to navigate easily. Unfortunately, that means that the racing season is over until 2019 when water levels should be higher.

The result of this year's racing is shown below. The number of prizes awarded is dependent upon the number of boats that qualify for a series.
Prizes will be awarded at the Laying-up Supper on Friday 30 November.
