Hi All,

We had our committe meeting last night, and discussed the topics mentioned above.

Our aim is to get as many boats on the water as possible, and we would certainly encourage any interstate boats interested in sailing to come over.

The view coming out of the meeting last night, is that provided you are a member of an affiliated mosquito state association, then you are eligible to compete. You do not need to join the MCASA.

The cost is $10 per race sailed.

On the matter of the age limit, this remains. We feel that due to the conditions that we sail in, we must demonstrate a duty of care. If your crew is underage, all they require is a TL1 or equivalent, which is just a basic skills certificate. I am told it is easy to get.

Might I also add that it was only by chance that I read this post, and that no one on the committe was aware of what was being discussed. Can I suggest that if you have any questions or concerns that you submit it to the association. This way there will be no "hear say" and hopefully get an answer in a quicker time frame.

Hope this helps,

Cheers,

Simon

Simon,

Let me be one of the first to say.....good call.

I have no issue with the TL1 quals and understand the duty of care...if anyone has queries regarding TL1 or basic ..give you local state yachting authority a call or drop me a line...somewhere in amongst my quals is a Sailing Instructor/Master.

From here on......lets go sailing...

Simon, the email I sent 8 days ago is below along with your reply, I talked to Phil also on Saturday about this and posted the info he gave me.

Welcome to the forum.

Hi Simon, some interest from Interstate sailors in our states.



How can they enter if they aren’t members of Sa Mozzy association? Seems like a waste of money for them to join our association and then pay for the states if they are already a member of Vic or NSW. I only had to pay for the states when I sailed in the Vic states, what do you think?

G'day Simon,

Thank you for the information.

My crew has done a bunk and will not be coming anyway so the age issue is not a problem.

I chose the Mozzie Forum to ask these question rather than direct contact because I may not be the only person with these questions and in the forum all can read the information. I also feel this is the most appropriate medium for these types of discussions. However I did not count on the fact that the S.A. Mozzie Association commitee members did not know of the existance of the forum. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Oh well, Glad I could make the introduction. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Welcome to the forum. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Good sailing. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Col,

Either way the end result has been, I hope, good for all..and we can move forward....albeit slowly.

The number of people who have read this particular post and the number of replies shows the interest in this subject....damn good call to put it up.

See you in Warrnambool, unless you are working.

G'day David,

Yep, good result. Now lets get on with what all this is about: SAILING. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

The leave roster is not out for next year yet, You know how it works. The chances of getting the leave you request is inversely proportional to the amount of pressure you put on your supervisor. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

If I don't get leave, I'll arrange a couple of days off and drop in for a visit. Look forward to seeing you there. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Brian,

Agreed, would be nice to see and be told the full results from the weekend.....not all of us were able to be there.

I do know the young guys from Barmera did well tho'.

It is time the State committee got it together and passed information on to ALL of us....come on guys, there is nothing on the web site either...so lets pass on the info, update the web site and share what you know, it is now Tuesday.

G'day David,

Thank you for the "loan" of your crew on the weekend. I think she enjoyed the weekend's sailing, I certainly did. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

We had 4 Victorian invaders <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> at the South Australian States. Gary J & Tim from Lake Boga and Peter N from Loch Sport sailing cat and myself sailing sloop.

On speaking to them, they all enjoyed the weekend. Thanks to the S.A.'s for letting us come and play. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Competition was good and racing close on the weekend with the front positions in both Cats and Sloops changing race to race. Wind for the racing was up to about 12 knots and varying in direction but mostly from the southerly directions.

I don't have the official results but on dead reckoning I believe that Beau is leading the Cats and Peter D is leading the Sloops after the weekend's racing. As for other positions I wouldn't have a clue.

Thank's to Lake Bonney for their hosipitality and another great weekend. Well done guys. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Shame about the age limit - hiding behind Duty of Care is a bit of a farce - no problems in other classes, only perceived for Mossies

Just a reminder for anyone who's interested the 2nd half of the South Australian State Titles are being held on the 9th and 10th February, 2008 at Victor Harbour.

I cant make it but I hope those who do have a great time. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Hey,

Any reports, results or links to the 2nd half of the Sth Australian state titles ? Nothing on the Sth Aust website yet but I'm probably too early.

Regards,

Peter

Overall the results I remember were,

Mk1's

Me,
Beau Delaine
Mark Pfennig

Mk2s

Simon Hallsworth and Sarah Martin

The other Mk2 positions I am not entirely sure of so I will wait until they appear online.

We had 10 to 15 knots with a moderate waves on Saturday, two 60 minute races back to back. A good feature of the course was the gybe mark position making for a fast second reach with bearaways down some big waves, everyone I spoke to after the race mentioned the screaming reach.

Sunday we had 15 to 20knots with the waves at around 2 metres, unfortunately the beach break was a killer and Steve Thomas on Just do It was hit by another boat in the surf and sustained considerable damage ending his day on the water. Out on the course the crashes continued with Beau and myself having a low speed prestart crunch but not enough damage to stop us racing. I got away a bit at the start and managed to hold that lead to the finish. The second reach was very quick again with the bigger waves making it even better, watching how hard Beau pushed his boat on those reaches was impressive and he finished second with Mark Pfennig third.

Victor Harbour Yacht Club again showed they know how to set a cat course that takes full advantage of their wild patch of water and it was obvious after racing that the Mozzy sailors had enjoyed it.

Congratulation Darryn Mk1 & Simon & Sarah Mk2. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Looks like Simon finally got the conditions he liked on the Sunday and looks like most had a great ride throughout the weekend. Disappointed I missed it. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Looking forward seeing the results.
