Jared Posted March 26, 2001 Report Share Posted March 26, 2001 Hello fellow Catamaran enthusiasts. I am soon to start lifting the profile of NACRA in Western Australia. I am looking for any NACRA owners over this way, or sailors interested in getting into NACRA's. Call me on 0403 325 223 Thanks Jared Eyles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chookie Posted May 11, 2001 Report Share Posted May 11, 2001 Hey Jared, Where do you sail from? I have a N5.0 and do not belong to any clubs. What sort of response have you had? Cheers Chookie N5.0 #1880 "Hawaii 5.0" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Posted May 17, 2001 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2001 I sail from the Nedlands Yacht Club. Things are a bit slow with responses, but I am sure I will get more enthusiasm closer to September. I was lucky enough to visit Brisbane Cat Centre the other week, and they have opened my eyes to how far we are behind in WA. Time to do some catching up.

Admin5 Posted May 18, 2001 Report Share Posted May 18, 2001 Jared, We will be selling Nacra parts though an on-line catalogue in Assoc with Brisbane Cat Centre in the next few weeks. Will give you a chance to see the parts before buying them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chookie Posted May 25, 2001 Report Share Posted May 25, 2001 I contacted Nedlands about 2 years ago and was frightened off by the cost of membership...about $600 for the first year + $160 p/a for hardstand. So I now just sail out of the Matilda Bay Reserve in amongst the sailboarders...gets exciting at times. I moved over here from Brisbane with my N5.0 and I actually bought my boat 2nd hand from Bris Cat with all the upgrades. What are you sailing?

Jared Posted May 25, 2001 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2001 Nedlands is a litle on the expensive side, but it has the largest number of NACRA 5.8's in WA, it also has the bigest cat fleet in general. I was on a 5.8 until 16 months ago, and due to personal reasons gave it away for a while. I have now sorted myself out and have unlimited enthusiasm for NACRA sailing. I hope to pick up one of the older 5.8's soon and sail that until, I have a few more pennies saved to pick a 5.8 with a sail no. of between 1500 and 1600. I will be running an informal winter sailing day soon for NACRA sailors and I will let you know the details as soon as they are finalised.
