What a great couple of days up on Lake Macquarie with 9 keen female laser sailors. We were able to race through all the basics of laser sailing in 2 days. I am sure all the girls are overloaded with information to the max after a speedy two days. We even had a participant fly in from Hong Kong. Its so fantastic to see some really keen & talented females on the water. Great Job Laura Baldwin for putting on such a great camp. http://www.h2o-sports-academy.com/#!sailing-better/cjpd...

Bic, Coaching

It was a great weekend of training down at Sandringham for the Open Bic Youth training day. Supported by OTB Marine who organised everything and made it happen. It was really nice to give back to Sandringham & to Sailing.  I really enjoyed taking the kids through some core points about starting. I even had a sail and found out  how slippery & skatey a Bic is. Looking forward to seeing the worlds come to Melbourne in 2016 http://www.syc.com.au http://otbmarine.com.au/www/home/ https://www.facebook.com/pages/2015-Open-Bic-World-CupMelbourne-Australia/1437511646530081    ...
