kurt Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 Just wondering what clubs still have windrush 14s still actively racing and how many. With the view of possibly restarting the nsw association and running state titles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prince Planet Posted March 29, 2019 Report Share Posted March 29, 2019 Then u r probably aware that the only 'active' racing fleet is based at Port Kembla? Not sure how many there are at Mannering Park - but I'm pretty sure they're Maricat-centric up there... I'm Sydney-based, and have tried (in vain) on a few occasions to get some interest from those guys to occasionally travel up to Kurnell Catamaran Club - even if it was for just a 1-day event - however, they have never come up as a group... so I pretty much gave up... I also tried to get a Sydney Social Catamaran Sailor's Group happening - but likewise, no real interest shown - even when there were at least 3 Windrush 14 sailors that could have got together on the odd occasion... or participated in the occasional 1-day regatta. Everyone in Sydney is just too 'busy' to commit to anything that requires regular participation - and that's just a sad fact of the modern lifestyle that Sydney-siders have to deal with... That's why, IMHO, the only way to generate interest is to not focus too much on the racing aspect - but to offer it as an occasional thing to do...
