Join us on Saturday 26 January, 2019 for Australia Day celebrations.  We will be hosting for the Sabot class the 183rd Australia Day Regatta, the oldest continuously-conducted annual sailing regatta in the world.

LC12ftSSC will be running three sprint races for 1-Up and 2-Up sabots, and a fun sailing activity for Green Fleet sailors new to the sport.  After lunch there will be a team novelty event.  Prizes will be awarded for best dressed sailors, most helpful and courteous sailors.  Members and friends are encouraged to join in the spirit of the day.  

The day is for all sailors and aspiring sailors, including our LC12ftSSC Learn to Sail graduates and we will be recognising those that have just started sailing in the 2018-19 season.  If you do not yet own a sabot Club boats will be available for the day but you will need to request a club boat as part of the registration.  Club boats will be allocated on a first come, first serve basis.
