2021 NZL National Championship 3.7 Class

[Secretary 3-7 Class]

Hi,

For the people not on facebook, report and results for the contest are here: https://www.3-7class.org.nz/2021.html

 

A nice article published by Wakatere and Yachting NZ is here:

Lots of great photos were taken by Northland Sailing Academy but these photos seem to be only on facebook here:

However they also took some drone video footage here:

What is next?

Well we have often raced in race April at Pt Chev for the “Auckland Champs”, and we have been invited to attend a BoIYC regatta (Waitangi) on 1^st and 2^nd of May. If you are interested in more details and possibly interested in attending please indicate support here:

We’ll work on more details according to support/interest..

The BoIYC regatta will have schools competing and will be great exposure for the class. So that event seems really ideal (?). If we had a good turnout of say 10 boats or more this event could be used for our North Island Champs since we have not yet raced NI Champs this season. Pt Chev is good because it is open to the SW and NW and usually has flat water.

Let’s have a cup of tea and a lie down to recover from the contest but later in March it is currently empty. Anyone can post/suggest an event to add to the calendar, if more than 5 boats are going to attend then it becomes a “go”. We only ‘manage’ things when events clash or are too close together detracting from each other.

 

Cheers

Chris
