Mark,

Agreed, I have seen that there is life over them thar hills

but honestly guys, I have some views on locations for Nationals and I believe that it is not only the sailing but the facilities there that can make or break a great weeks sailing. Not all families are happy to sit and watch and get burnt on the beach. Maybe getting changed on the beach or using other clubs (SLSC or caravan park) is okay but for a club sailing day, but for 30-40 crews, please

Hey,not my choice where it is decided to sail them, just my choice to attend

my thoughts for what they are worth and I can think of a LOT of worse places than Barmera (great facilities and good company) and a lake would be a change from the years of oceans.
