Happy Wednesday sailors,
Tonight forĀ Dockside with DebĀ I’m interviewing a panel of sailors who have recently done the Sydney Hobart Yacht Race, to get insight on how they secured their crew position and their experience in the event.
If you’re based in NSW and itching to get back out on the water, I suggest you check out theĀ Breakout Series 2020Ā – a new regatta organised by MHYC, RPAYC, NCYC and PSYS that’s being held in early August and consists of 3 passage races and 3 races in Port Stephens. You can find out more or register your interest to join as crewĀ on MySail.
With sailing starting to open back up, we have new races and events being added all of the time to theĀ MySail event listingĀ page. If you would like to get your club’s events listed here, send an email toĀ hello@mysail.teamĀ so we can help you out.
Until next week, happy sailingĀ šāµ
