Centreboard News Laser Masters in Port Stephens No kids this time, just the seasoned sailors doing their thing up in Port Stephens and what a regatta it was. The first three days produced classic sea breezes that allowed us to slot in eight races. Although, after the first day, we didn’t expect to get that many in, with one of the Radial fleets racking up a massive six restarts in one of the races! Some people would say they were pushy, but maybe it was the poor eyesight making the minuscule pin difficult to see. The last day was not quite the same, with the late starting sea breeze causing the AP to go up. Luckily the wind filled in time to get one last race in. What a fantastic place to sail, great weather, great team, great fun and great results. Many thanks to the Race Committee and The Port Stephens Sailing and Aquatic Club.
