Queensland F18 News

The Fastways QLD F18 State Titles are coming up fast in late Feb on the Gold Coast.There is $10,000 prize money up for grabs for the F18 fleet spread over 5 places and a lucky sail draw.
I think this could be the first event where cold hard cash has been put up for grabs in Australia for the F18 fleet.

After the States finish on the Friday they have the 'Great Race' starting on the Saturday which is a 37nm race from the Gold Coast to Brisbane which has $2000 prize money up for grabs. This is a very unique race and attracts a lot of coverage.

The Southport YC which is hosting the event is the same one which will hold the 2nd Nacra Infusion Worlds in Feb 2013, so it's a great chance to come along and check out the club and accommodation.

There are 8 boats coming down from Nth QLD and two from Sydney along with all the local boats so hope to see you up there.

I will try and post updates and photos from the event as it happens but cannot promise anything.
