Over the weekend I was assisting at the 420 and 470 NSW State Titles out of MHYC. What a huge weekend with BIG WAVES and BIG BREEZE! On Saturday we actually set the course inside Middle Harbour! Not something we would normally do but even there it was gusting 24 knots with swells rolling in every now and then. Creating some great surfing opportunities for those competing.
On Sunday we headed into the Sound with a smaller start team on a smaller start boat! Not ideal in a big seaway but certainly interesting. Unfortunatly I had no chance of taking photos on the Sunday. The breeze held steady at 15-17 knots and the swell was less than Saturday but still had some big moments.
A little video I took on Saturday when I had the time.

This weekend is another HUGE weekend at Middle Harbour Yacht Club with the Sydney Harbour Regatta on. Saturday morning sees the Sailing Chix Live on location kick starting things. Let’s hope for beautiful sunshine and a Nor’easter! They have been lacking lately…
