• Regatta Update - Australasian Championship, Gold Coast Championship & Winter Waterloo Cup

  The Mooloolaba Australasian Championship has been cancelled for this year only, due to the unsafe conditions at the coastal bar, made worse by the recent weather conditions. As we expect the Australasian Championship to be back on the schedule for next year, you could consider rolling your accommodation on to next year's June long weekend. For this year, there is still some terrific sailing to look forward to.

  
  

  The Gold Coast Championship will now include the Australasians which will be sailed 28-30 May 2022.

  
  

  - Saturday/Sunday: 6 races are scheduled for the Gold Coast Championship, same as previous (28-29 May).

  - Saturday/Sunday/Monday: 9 races are scheduled for the Australasians (28-30 May).

  
  

  Entrants to the Gold Coast Championship have been invited to upgrade and participate in the now 3-day event.

  
  

  The Brisbane Fleet and RQYS have stepped in to run a two-day regatta 11-12 June 2022, the Winter Waterloo Cup.
