Due to unfavorable forecast for the wk end, racing for heat 3 of the Formula Series is cancelled for the wk end. Even at best case scenario, forecast looking marginal both days running out of Marmong and so we’ll look to reschedule later in the season.

Thanks and enjoy the wk end

Isn't it supposed to be Saturday or Sunday not another date? I could have gone to the Merimbula Classic.

Difficult decision for Adam but when you look at the forecast it is bad. probability of racing very low either day.
with tho high pressure systems not a good scenario. maybe we will get a NE breaze tomorrow arvo maybe a light se Sunday only time will tell. But they don't want to waist peoples time and not race.
Yes of course we could have raced every day this week go figure.
But please be mindful its not easy for people like Adam to make these calls but in this case a agree and hopefully we will end up having a great race day in the new year at Marmong.

Cheer up peeps! We've got Sanctuary Point in two weeks!

The long range forecast has a NE wind for Sunday 4th, so I hope we'll catch the next proper sea breeze cycle.

Argh!! spewing! 15 to 20 knot E/NE at Marmong today damn sorry fellas. The Marmong pensioners association were mostly on 10 metre's I was on 9.6 myself and underdone at times but a 10.7 was definitely not on lol. It kicked in to a solid 18 to 20 at about 3pm you could have done GPS or even slalom.

What can you do even meteye got it wrong today.

Hi Adam is the event still on this Saturday? Some forecasts showing a nice southerly which would be good.

Thanks James & Tinlyds. Will make the call on final forecast update this arvo.
Tinlyds, I don't think I'd be on my own in expressing the opinion that experience has shown in recent years, a light NE breeze not being best in front of Marmong?
As stated, lets see what that update says this arvo.
