I posted this on www.moth.asn.au but due to web link stuff I do not understand it did not appear on www.moth-sailing.org. I hope by posting it here the links might get picked up and be seen by anyone who missed them.
We have had 15 races, 4 on each two days, there are a lot of tired sailors.
The regatta has been dominated an won with a day to spare by NZ Peter
Burling. He becomes the first international to win an AUS nationals
regatta and the first Aust Open Champion. Scott Babbage has been second
yet again but this time at least he becomes the Australian Champion as
first Austalian.
The big crowd of volunteers from Wangi ASC have done a great job, the
weather has been very good and the winds generous.
Next year we venture to Yepoon, with an AUS worlds in 2015 at a venue
yet to be determined, Perth, Sorrento and Woollahra are bidding.
Thanks to ZHIK for the three big boxes of prizes, and to CST
Composites who funded the excellent video coverage from Beau
Outterdidge. There are other families involved at Wangi, you just do not
know all their names.
The final results and the AGM are posted under National Documents:
