ILCA Masters Worlds Training

Chris Tattersall

For those DNSC members going to Adelaide early Feb 2024 for the Laser Masters Worlds (and also those who are not), a number of DBSC Master members who are going to the Adelaide LMW, plus other sailors from overseas (ITA FRA GBR & USA to date), have expressed interest in training out of DBSC beforehand.

Mark Bethwaite has offered to run sprint races on the afternoons of Sun 28, Mon 29, Tues 30, and Wed 31 Jan.  Overseas Masters may also join our racing on Sat 27 Jan, subject to boats being available.

 Actions:

  • Would those interested in joining this pre-LMW training, please email rodbarnes@dbsc.com.au 

  • Would those interested in chartering their hull, spars and foils to overseas Masters for AUD50 per day, also please email rodbarnes@dbsc.com.au. Please also indicate if your boat is available for charter Sat 27 Jan.

 

Mark has offered to: 

  • Allocate boats between DBSC charterers and overseas visitors

  • Run sprint racing - 3pm through 5.30pm Sun 28 through Wed 31 Jan

  • Ensure boats are returned in original condition to owners.

Mark will need a couple of volunteers, one to join him on the Adam and another to drive the Bergman for mark laying and safety requirements.  Please email rodbarnes@dbsc.com.au if you are available.

 

Looking forward to a few days of intensive training to sharpen our skills prior to Adelaide.
