Update on King Island

For the 34 boats and crews entered to the King Island Race or Rally, things are now looking promising again.

If you haven't seen the latest travel alert from the Tasmania Government, here it is.

So we keep on making plans and should we need to tack at last minute, we have a backup plan to swap King Island and Port Fairy. As we keep getting ready to sail to King Island (via Race or Rally) we remind you that entry is still open for you to join us.

If you or your fellow crew member needs a Safety and Sea Survival certification, this weekend's full 2 day course is on and there are a couple of places still available. 

Should we need to tack at last minute, we are in discussion with Port Fairy Yacht Club and are planning a backup plan to Port Fairy and King Island dates.... but only if we can't go as originally planned.
