SHQ BREAKWATER TO BEACON - SUNDAY 18TH JAN!!!
The famous SHQ Breakwater to Beacon race is on again Sunday 18th Jan 2015.
As usual the race concept is an open event for all competent windsurfers who can sail long distances. As per the event name, we sail from Sandringham Beach (Breakwater left of the Yacht Club), to a mark near Fawkner Beacon and back, about 18kms.
The actual race mark will be set on the day depending on the wind direction and will be outlined during the race briefing at 3pm sharp. Following the race we'll have a BBQ, presentations and giveaways and relive all the action from the day.
Schedule:
Registration will be at Sandringham beach from 1pm until 2:30pm
Briefing will be at 3pm near the registration desk
Race Start will be from beach left of breakwater and depending on the weather will be somewhere between 3:30pm and 4:30pm
